dbaccess ... more than 24 lines
Posted in 1999
Topics: Server Administration
Does anyone know if it is possible to get more than 24 lines
in a dbaccess session?
I created a local termcap file, modified the li#24 to li#72 and
I get a "Bad termcap entry" when I try to run dbaccess. I am
setting my TERMCAP var to point to the modified termcap file.
This is in a vt100 terminal session.

I don't run dbaccess the normal way much anymore. I borrowed
an idea from someone and set my function keys in vi to send a
block of text to dbaccess and return the results in the block below
the query. I got tired of hitting 'N' for next page then accidentally
hitting 'N' for New Query and wiping out my sql statement(s).
I also filter the query through sed to get some 'macro' like functionality,
and filter the results through sed to get cleaner output.
So this way, I actually get alot more than 24 lines :-)
