I am using my Tandy-1000/Deskmate as a dialup terminal to
a VAX/UNIX host at school. Since there is no termcap entries
for Tandy series on the host's termcap database, I have to
set the TERM environment variable to something else -- *vt52*
is what I have been using. Everything works fine under this
faked TERM value, except I cannot use any of the screen oriented
editors, such as EMACS and VI.

Is there any chance that somebody outthere in the Tandy community
knows of a better termcap for my dialup terminal that would enable
me to use either EMACS or VI? Or has someone himself/herself ever
tried to build such a termcap entry from scratch?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
