Hello all, I am new to Minix, but know quite a bit of end-user unix... I have recently downloaded (anon FTP) some generic Unix source code from uunet.uu.net comp.sources.unix archive and found that most if not all of the display oriented stuff doesn't work. I know there is are termcap-type abilities. The termcap file in /etc looks identical in format to the on on NIU's 4.3BSD system, and the display stuff works without change there. Can someone tell me what are the actual display library routines, are they compatible with anything, am I completely on my own, etc...Any help would be appreciated.
