The last time I tried TERMTABLE.EXE I could not describe a terminal
which used zero-based cursor addressing (e.g. HOME = move 0 0 instead
of 1 1). I then gave up forever.
Anyway, if your terminal type is in termcap (lots of them are already
there!), just $DEFINE EMACS_TERM "whatever_your_terminal_is" and run
emacs. If it's not in there, it is often esy to add it.
