-#From: "Eirik Fuller" <wonton.tn.cornell.edu!eirik@ucsbcsl.UUCP>
-#To: bfox@ai.mit.edu (Brian Fox)
-#Subject: Patch to bash 1.05 for SunView
-#
-#I think this works:
-#
-Mu|sun-cmd:am:bs:km:pt:li#34:co#80:cl=^L:ce=\E[K:cd=\E[J:rs=\E[s:
-#
-#Another alternative is to send the ti string at startup time (and, I
-#guess, the te string at exit time); that is how vi works in a cmdtool.
-#The best reason to not do this is that this also disables scrolling
-#which, as I understand it, is why anyone would use cmdtool in the
-#first place. Sending the ti string at startup time would do strange
-#things on other systems too; in xterm it would use the alternate
-#screen.
-#
-#The problem with cmdtool, in case that is less than obvious, is that
-#almost none of the capabilities advertised in /etc/termcap are enabled
-#while scrolling is enabled. It has other problems too, like being
-#part of an outdated proprietary windowing system, but there's probably
-#no need to dwell on that. In a sense, though, the sun-cmd termcap
-#entry doesn't lie about the capabilities; I think the termcap man page
-#does warn about some terminals having cursor motion capabilities only
-#in the "ti/te window".
-#
-#A general solution to this problem would require a termcap capability
-#which somehow tells which features are available outside of the ti/te
-#window. There is no such capability in termcap now, of course.
