Well good news!
To get tgetent(), a libtermcap.a routine, to work on the RS6000 I only
had to create a link from /etc/termcap to /lib/libtermcap/termcap.src:
ln -s /lib/libtermcap/termcap.src /etc/termcap
Any termcap file would do but IBM supplies this one.
I am a bit surprised the RS6000 has routines to access the termcap file when
it uses terminfo: but, then again, there is no manual entry for tgetent.
I am glad it works but must wonder if it is suppose to work or will
in the future.
