Hi,

have you tried to set the TERM variable to vt100 or xterm before
starting pine; just to get it working?

many thanks to the those responding to my termcap/terminfo inquiry.

what was not addressed, was what features pine is looking for in
termcap/terminfo before deciding if an entry is 'supported'.

it would probably take someone who knows the source code. for example,
do i need 'blink'? 'kend'? and so forth.
