When did al and dl acquire numeric parameters (as AL and DL)??
With ``pc=<pc>'' you'll get lots of ``<''s for pad characters,
since pad characters are just one ``char''.  Of course, with
no padding you shouldn't see any anyway....

We should all switch over to terminfo anyway.  (Die termcap die!!
<ahem ... er, sorry>)  [Seriously, terminfo seems far superior to
termcap.]
