Occasionally, I need to logon to an ibm-xenix system from my sun3
but I've been unable to get a functional termcap--starting up vi
with any variant of the usual termcap that i use for example on
vaxen and the pyramid here gives a message to the effect "screen
too large for buffer".  If anyone could help on this I'd be very
grateful.  (I thought at first that this might be simply a matter
of the number of lines, or line length, but adjusting them doesn't
seem to fix the problem.)
