Does anyone have the source code for the terminfo entry for "mac2" (the MacII Initial Console Emulator). I notice that programs that use termcap instead of terminfo (for example "rn" and "less") have trouble with the standout mode. Programs that use terminfo don't. I'm curious as to why? Any thoughts?

Any thoughts? Just a thought: you culd untic (uncompile) the terminfo and compare it with the termcap for any obvious differences. "untic" is public domain I believe and if you don't have it someone on the net might be able to get you a copy. Hmmm... I think if I rumage around I can find a copy. If your're interested send me e-mail.
