Hi misc,

i have a problem with my terminal, st [1].  Just for the record, i am using the 
latest -current snapshot (but the problem existed before).  I had an unrelated 
problem with zsh, where my HOME and DEL key were not working properly (the 
related thread on the st-mailing list can be found at [2]).  I was pointed to 
the zsh FAQ [3], where they suggest to enable (and later disable) the 
"application mode" in zsh using the terminfo commands "smkx" and "rmkx".  Now, 
here's the problem: st ships a terminfo file (st.info), which is installed with 
tic (in my case, systemwide).  The original st.info contains entries for 
{r,s}mkx, but when i query the system terminfo database with 'infocmp -1 st', 
no entries for {r,s}mkx are found:

% egrep '[rs]mkx' st.info
        rmkx=\E[?1l\E>,
        smkx=\E[?1h\E=,
% infocmp -1 st-256color | egrep '[rs]mkx' | wc -l
       0

How can this be?  Is this a bug or am i missing something?  Any help much 
appreciated.

Best,
Nils
