  I think we may have failed to make it clear that support for ANSI
keysequences is needed in UNIX versions. Termcap support won't do it. I
posted fixes for this in every version from 3.7? to 3.10beta and none of
them ever got picked up.

  Earlier I posted the logic which allows this to work on all versions
of UNIX (at least seven I use uncluding BSD, SysV and Xenix) and which
was in the fix I posted for 3.10beta.

  I have offered several times to test versions on memacs on Xenix and
have never been contacted. I expect to have a fix out by the end of
April for 3.10 and will post it.
