I'm trying to run Windows 3.0 Terminal in VT100 mode, on an NEC
Powermate SX.  Following the Microsoft Windows User Guide Appendix C,
I wrote the following termcap:

dZ|winterm|Windows 3.0 terminal in vt100 mode:\
	:co#80:li#24:bs:\
	:cm=\E[%2;%2H:CM=\E[%2;%2f:cs=\E[%2;%2r:ho=\E[;H:\
	:sc=\E7:rc=\E8:sf=\ED:sr=\EM:\
	:up=\E[A:do=\E[B:nd=\E[C:le=\E[D:\
	:UP=\E[%dA:DO=\E[%dB:RI=\E[%dC:LE=\E[%dD:\
	:cd=\E[0J:ce=\E[0K:cb=\E[1K:cl=\E[2J:dc=\E[P:DC=\E[%dP:\
	:IC=\E[%d@:AL=\E[%dL:\
\
	:dl=\E[M:DL=\E[%dM:\
\
	:bo=\E[1m:eb=\E[m:us=\E[4m:ue=\E[m:bl=\E[5m:be=\E[m:\
	:rv=\E[7m:re=\E[m:ea=\E[m:\
	:is=\E>\E[?3l\E[?4l\E[?7l\E[?8h:ks=\E[?1h\E=:ke=\E[?1l\E>:\
	:ld=\E)0:ls=\016:le=\017:\
	:qa=j:qb=k:qc=l:qd=m:qe=n:qf=q:qg=t:qh=u:qi=v:qj=w:qk=x:\
	:ky:kn#18:k0=\EOp:k1=\EOM:k2=\EOl:k3=\EOm:k4=\EOq:k5=\EOr:\
	:k6=\EOs:k7=\EOt:k8=\EOu:k9=\EOv:kA=\EOw:kB=\EOx:kC=\EOP:\
	:kD=\EOQ:kE=\EOR:kF=\EOS:kG=\EOy:kH=\EOn:ku=\EOA:kd=\EOB:\
	:kr=\EOC:kl=\EOD:

which doesn't work.  The most glaring problem is with the delete a
line sequence.  According to the manual, \E[M should delete a line.
However, this doesn't seem to work.  I have tried 
   /usr/5bin/echo "\033[M"
and it just doesn't work.  This makes the Terminal completely
unusable.  Someone, somewhere, *must* have solved this one!

I posted a similar request about 2 months ago, and got a few `me-too's
asking me to pass on anything that I received, but the only termcap
that I got was even worse than the one above.

Microsoft support claim that they've got a working termcap, but they
refused to send me a copy.

Pleeeeeaaaasseeeeee send it if you've got it working. We are
desperate!
