Re: termcap configuration for hpux 9.04
have u tried setting both the INFORMIXTERM and TERMCAP variables?
besides it would not hurt u to read the release notes in the
release directory that comes with the online product. generally it
has machine specific recommendations and i for one have found
them to be pretty reliable.
regards,
