I am curious as to what your env. var. TERM was set ? Mine is set to
`xterm'. can I have your termcap if possible ? The home page for ncurses
(Your home page I'd suppose, Thomas) states the following.

Bonk!!!, The entry for xterm doesn't have any of these. As a matter of
fact, I couldn't find any entry except `color_xterm' concerning xterms which
had the color capability. And when I ran with my TERM set it to it, my
terminal conked. :-(
The uname entry for my m/c has this following
HP-UX isabella A.09.05 A 9000/712
I also use machines with different flavours of HP-UX, i.e. 9.03, 9.01 etc.
My xterms (h/w) usually are a console and a color capable NCD terminal.
Any updates ???
