Hallo,
on SCO UNIX 3.2.0 I tried to connect a Wy60 termial. I specified it in my
.login file of the csh. When I logged in tset can't find the termial type,
but it is specified in /etc/termcap. After some experiments I tried the
good old tset from SCO XENIX 2.3.2. This will work, but for some terminal
(ansi) the termcap entry is to great for the csh.
1.) Has the SCO UNIX tset-command a bug? Is there a work around or a bugfix
disk?
2.) What must I do, if the csh tells that the enviromentstring is to long?
Is it possible to set the enviroment size of a shell ?
Thanks in advance
Tillmann

Make sure that the terminfo library is compiled. Look at the directory /usr/lib/terminfo; there should be a file terminfo.src, and a bunch of directories, each directory being a letter of the alphabet. To compile the library the command is: tic terminfo.src JB -- Jonathan Bayer Intelligent Software Products, Inc. (201) 245-5922 500 Oakwood Ave. jbayer@ispi.COM Roselle Park, NJ 07204
