Message-ID: <5731@brl-tgr.ARPA> Date: Mon, 12-Nov-84 14:35:16 EST Article-I.D.: brl-tgr.5731 Posted: Mon Nov 12 14:35:16 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 13-Nov-84 01:33:48 EST Sender: news@brl-tgr.ARPA Organization: Ballistic Research Lab Lines: 15 My H19 does not wrap lines, so I tried setting the environment variable TERMCAP to kb|h19-nowrap:am@:tc=h19: Unfortunately, when I tried to use the program "more", I got an error message which said "Infinite tc loop". This happened even if I changed "h19-nowrap" to something else not containing "h19" (such as "xxx"). Then I tried setting TERMCAP to kb|h19-nowrap:am@:tc=heath: which worked fine (heath is a synonym for h19). I am perfectly happy to use the latter form, but I am very curious why the first version doesn't work. Any explanations? Thanks, Ken Traub -------
