If you look in the directory /usr/lib/terminfo/v you will find
entries for the following terminal(families):
   vt100, vt200_series, vt300_series, vt400_series
Of these vt400_series is braindead - ie. it gives "not enough memory for
screens, the others seem to work!
Is this fixed in posix v1.1?
Does anyone know if you can take terminfo files from other UN*X's and
use under POSIX - I can't find the terminfo-compiler anywhere!
