Not sure how much help I can be....after all, I didn't write this! But, lets
see:

Don't know why sterm needs 'le' (backspace code). I checked my source and it
does look for it, but never seems to use it. Anyway, it is probably just as
well to add it to screen. Matter of fact, the termcap creater in screen should
really copy all the termcap entries and modify the ones it knows about? Maybe?

I have standout defined in both my vsc and televideo 965 entries and screen
seems to honor them just fine. Ummm, does the screen termcap entry show
anything for "so/se"? Oh, do you have "me" defined. Looking at the source real
fast...it appears that something is done to "so/se" if "me" is defined. I think
the logic may be incorrect in ansi.c. Try taking "me" out of your termcap and
see what happens. I think that the application is probably looking for "se" and
ignoring "me".

What is ^\C supposed to do? If I do a  followed by a  I create a new
 screen. To delete the current screen I do an EOF which ptyman redefines as a
CTRL-D (not ESC).

Just tried DED. Seems to be okay expect for when it prints the lsn #. Seems to
get gotoxy() screwed up.

I wonder...before we all get hacking on this version, is there a more current
unix version kicking around. Might be that termcap bug fixes have been done
already.
