In the SCO XENIX System V 2.2 User's Reference Manual, in the
Miscellaneous section, TERMCAP entry dated August 26, 1985, page 4 it
states:

PD	str	Sent by PAGE DOWN key
PU	str	Sent by PAGE UP key

In the SCO Professional manual, Configuration Guide section, page 2-3
it states:

Next Page	kN
Previous Page	kP

Sure enough, SCO Professional ignores the PD and PU entries in termcap,
and responds to kN and kP.  This seems very silly.

I thought this might save some of you from the manual hunting and phone
calling I made to find out about this.  I have requested that they
bring SCO Professional in line with the Runtime docs, and I was told
that an 'Enhancement Request' would be filled out for me.
