Window resizing has nothing at all to do with termcap, you are mistaken, it
relies on a SIGWINCH signal being sent to the process when its window is
resized. The key to making microemacs refresh properly in a differently
sized window is to intercept SIGWINCH with signal() or other somesuch, 
obtain the window sizes and refresh.

It is more than likely you are not using the correct #defines, so go through
the source again, and find what #define that SIGWINCH use is conditional on.
