It looks a little short compared to the system one here. `infocmp -I xterm' will dump the currently used binary definition as text. `smcup' and `rmcup' are the entries that need nobbling by removal. tic(1) turns it back into binary, probably for your ~/.terminfo directory.
No doubt. I started with a more compact BSD definition, I think. But no matter, you nailed the crux: kill the ??cup capabilities and life gets better. But I have tried explaining that before, and rapidly concluded 'tic this' gives me an extra couple of weeks before I die :-) Seriously. In this day and age, who the hell knows what a terminfo entry is, let along why they exist. Never mind how to change one. --lyndon
