Note also that the behavior of a genuine DEC VT100 terminal with wrap-
around enabled is NOT properly described by the "am" termcap capability.
The following is the best VT100 termcap description that I know of,
which should count for something since I was the editor of the 4.3BSD
termcap manual.

#
# DEC VT100 with variations for Advanced Video Option and screen width.
# The following SET-UP modes are assumed for normal operation:
#	ANSI_MODE	AUTO_XON/XOFF_ON	NEWLINE_OFF	80_COLUMNS
#	WRAP_AROUND_ON
# Other SET-UP modes may be set for operator convenience or communication
# requirements; I recommend
#	SMOOTH_SCROLL	AUTOREPEAT_ON	BLOCK_CURSOR	MARGIN_BELL_OFF
#	SHIFTED_3_#
# Unless you have a graphics add-on such as Digital Engineering's VT640
# (and even then, whenever it can be arranged!) you should set
#	INTERLACE_OFF
# Hardware tabs are assumed to be set every 8 columns; they can be set up
# by the "reset", "tset", or "tabs" utilities (use vt100-x, 132 columns, for
# this).  I have included some compatible code in "rs" for the VT640 if you
# have one.  No delays are specified; use "stty ixon -ixany" to enable DC3/DC1
# flow control!
# Thanks to elsie!ado (Arthur David Olson) for numerous improvements.
