Depending on which terminal emulator you use, it could be 'xterm-debian' or 'rxvt' or anything.... Do an 'echo $TERM' on the Solaris system to see what variable it wants. On the Linux system, do 'infocmp xterm-debian' (or whatever variable) and redirect that to a file. (E.g., 'infocmp xterm-debian >xterm-debian.ti'.) Send that file over to Solaris. Then on Solaris, as yourself (unless you want this to be system-wide) you can do: mkdir ~/.terminfo TERMINFO=~/.terminfo export TERMINFO tic -v xterm-debian.ti If you want it to be system-wide, you can omit the first three lines and run the tic as root. You may want to read /usr/doc/xterm/README.Debian as well, even if you aren't using xterm. -- Greg Wooledge | Distributed.NET http://www.distributed.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] | because a CPU is a terrible thing to waste. http://www.kellnet.com/wooledge/ |
