Re: libcurses almost working with libterminfo

I've also prepared a patch for libcurses to use libterminfo [2].
This sort of works. It doesn't crash, but it also doesn't behave entirely correctly. For example, vi editing /etc/fstab the END key fails to work (screen flashes, case changes).

OK, new libterminfo that maps NetBSD (I assume) key extensions onto termcap which fixes the vi issue. I realised what the issue might be, as vi does the same thing for terms without this mapping, such as the default vt100 (I use wsvt25).
