I'm looking for working termcap entries for the 5620 and 630 DMD terminals. I put together a couple of entries based on the terminfo entries distributed with our department 3B2 which seem to work okay with vi, but vnews and vn barf at them (lots of "OOPS" messages). From what I can tell, the problem appears to be in the code for cursor motion, cm. HELP!

don't waste your time trying to write them --
in your .profile, do something like this:
export TERMINFO TERMCAP
TERMINFO=/usr/lib/terminfo (or whereever)
TERMCAP=`infocmp -C`
works like a charm for me...

It's also the first thing I tried. Unfortunately, vi, vnews, and vn all responded with "bad termcap entry." Interestingly enough, the blasted "cm" entry seemed to cause all the trouble. If I gave it a shorter (but bogus) cm entry, all the above programs had no complaint--even though the entry was bogus! Sigh... In any case, many thanks to all those who responded.
