Sigh.  I am the proud evaluator of a Wyse 30 and a Wyse 60 (i.e., we might
buy a few, if we can make them work).  I have the following questions:

1. Can someone send me a termcap entry for a Wyse 60?

2. Can someone send me a termcap entry for a Wyse 30?

3. Does anyone have any experience with the Wyse 30?  After one hour of
   fiddling, I am leaning towards this one because I can figure it out.
   The wyse 60 that we have may be broken, but I cannot tell.  The DEL and
   CR keys send odd sequences depending upon emulation mode, even when I
   ask SETUP for default parameters.

4. Are we making a terrible mistake?  Is there some other cheap terminal
   that we should be buying?  (We are looking for a CHEAP terminal to tide
   us over until the workstations arrive; this means that I don't want to
   waste much time figuring the damn thing out).

If nobody replies, then I should have a minimal entry for the 30 in a few
days.
