At the The Hague Polytechnic, where I studied Computer Sciences,
the VT100 termcap entry contained the following entries for inserting
and deleting lines:

     al=\E7\E[%i%2;24r\E8\EM\E[1;24r\E8:\
     dl=\E7\E[%i%2;24r\E[24;1H\ED\E[1;24r\E8:

These entries make use of the scrolling facilities of the VT100.

Entries for entering and leaving insert-mode weren't defined.
