[comp.sys.laptops] Termcap for Tandy 1100FD laptop

bin@primate.wisc.edu (Brain in Neutral) (03/10/90)

It has been noted by others on the net that the documentation for
the Tandy 1100FD is not one of its strong points.  I concur, though
I like the machine so far.  One missing point in the docmentation is
what sort of terminal telecom "emulates".   vt52 is kind of close,
but, at least in vi, shows two problems:  cursor backspacing is destructive
and wipes out what you're backing the cursor over; and the 'x' command
sometimes erases too much.

After some experimentation, I found that the following seems to work
reasonably well.  (the so/se strings don't work right; they're taken
from a Model 102 termcap).  Anyone have an entry that improves on this?

Here's the equivalent terminfo stuff (at least, it's what captoinfo on
the above gives me...)
