I'm running NetBSD 1.6.1 in a NEC MobilePro 780. Currently, TERM is set to
xterm. I'm trying to run naim, a ncurses based chat program that's available
via pkgsrc.
When I try to start naim, it complains that the terminal doesn't use color.
Naim suggests several other terminals, including vt100, vt220, vt100-color,
vt220-color, xterm-color, ansi, etc.
When I try these terminals, either naim claims that they don't support color
or the system complains that they aren't recognized.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Andrew Gould
