Help Me,
  I have a wyse50+ terminal.  I am running a program that is based on curses.
No matter what wyse terminal emulation I set my TERM variable to, I get a 
"magic cookie" whenever I try to go into standout mode to highlight in
reverse video.  If I do not use reverse video everything looks fine except
I can't see my cursor.

I tried making a terminfo entry and added "xmc#1" for the number of spaces that
the terminal makes whenever it goes to highlight something.  This turns all 
characters into chinese characters!  

Has anyone every had any success running curses programs and using wyse50+
terminals?  If you have a wyse50 terminal entry that does both reverse video
and arrow keys it would be great.  Using wyse150ak does give me arrow keys
but I still get the reverse video standout glitch.

I am running on SCO UNIX 3.2.4.  Please respond via email as I hardly ever
read this news group.

Mary
