I had some problems with building Emacs 18.55 on my Interactive Unix. The problems were with curses (garbled screen output either with TERM= ansi and TERM=AT386) and with `sysdep.c' (is it ok to undef TIOCGETC like it is done under XENIX?). Thanks for any help.

The terminfo entry for TERM=at386 is screwed up. A year or so ago, I found that the obscure and irrelevent-to-at386 "xt" flag is set in the shipped terminfo entry. I posted this information which was followed-up with additional changes by others. Unfortunately, I have misplaced the complete list of changes, hopefully someone else has them and will post (please?). However, I think that removing the "xt" flag is sufficient to get GNU Emacs working correctly. You can get a copy of the terminfo "source" for at386 using the command: infocmp at386 >at386.tic. Edit the file at386.tic and remove the "xt" flag. Then compile the new entry with: tic at386.tic. regards, Larry -- Signed: Larry A.
