The title says it all: Anybody got a termcap for aixterm? Alternatively, anybody got a terminfo-to-termcap converter?

I am sure Bjorn has this one in the FAQ, he certainly had a good answer when I asked this. Thanks for this and the FAQ too, Bjorn! Dale Hubler hubler@galaxy.lerc.nasa.gov -- Dale A.

The infocmp program from the AT&T Software Toolchest will do a reasonable job of converting terminfo files to termcap files. For more information contact AT&T at 1-800-828-8649. You can also browse the Toolchest catalog by logging on to the Toolchest order system as "guest" (no password) at 1-201-522-6900. Infocmp costs $50 + a $4.60 UUCP transmission fee. There is also a terminfo to termcap conversion program available in the comp.sources.unix archives (e. g., on j.cc.purdue.edu). It's called untic, and it's in Volume 5. I believe infocmp is superior to untic.

I checked the FAQ before posting and saw only the termcap for the HFT. Of course, I didn't know -- as I do now -- that the termcap for the HFT and aixterm are the same. But you make a good point. Bjorn, if you're listening, maybe the next edition of the FAQ could include this point? More generally, what would also be useful is for the FAQ to point out that the file known as "/etc/termcap" on Real Unix machines is known as "/lib/libtermcap/termcap.src" in AIX-land. With this information, the rest can be deduced. Anyway, thanks for the information.
