Can anyone tell me why I can issue the command 'termcap' and come up with 
all of the termcap settings, but when 'more' is executed, 'Unknown 
terminal' is output??

Is TERMCAP an environment variable? I get different results if I set
TERMCAP=/etc/termcap or TERMCAP=minix. (both while TERM=minix)

termcap is used by clr, stevie, etc... but I cannot get more to work nor 
can I get colors to be output to my Mitsubishi EGA monitor.

Can someone help??

thanks,
mike

THIS IS ON A 1.3d system.

(I'd like to get this resolved before modifying 1.3d to 1.4!)
