HELP!
Does anyone out there have the TERMINFO file for the Teletype 5420
terminal? I am trying to run vi on UNIX System V Release 2 on a VAX
11/780 and haven't gotten very far. I keep getting error messages like
Visual requires scrolling. or
Visual does not know enough about your terminal.
I have tried converting a System V termcap file to the new format but have
had only limited success. I am trying to bujild my own TERMINFO file
because our UNIX support has given up on this problem (Now that's support--
"I don't know; Let me know when you find something.").
Any and all quick help would be greatly appreciated. I am tired of messing
with this and I'm ready to move on to my real work.
Thanks,
Scotty
