I believe my problem is that the termcap entries do not include any
specification of region scrolling.  Somehow I need to fix that (but
this is going to be difficult because I am a mere user, not the sysadmin,
on this machine, and UNIX seems to be designed to be customized only by
sysadmins).  I've scrounged /etc/termcap for any suitable alternates, but
none are to be found.  Eventually I hope to hack together a way to create
my own termcaps and somehow get those to be used in lieu of /etc/termcap.

IN THE MEAN TIME, is there any work around in GNU EMACS to force it to do
region scrolling ANYWAY, despite the termcap being in error?  This is the
substantial problem I have right now.
