Setting your TERMCAP environment variable to either the name of a file
containing terminal descriptions (to be used instead of the default
/etc/termcap) or the actual description itself is supposed to be
sufficient.  Make sure you have exported the TERMCAP variable.
If this doesn't seem to work, then the odds are that the termcap-
using program in question does not follow the rules; perhaps it was
built with an antique version of libtermlib.a.  Also be aware that
a program could use "terminfo" instead of "termcap".
