I don't have a good answer for this one (except perhaps nuking the old Solaris curses), but I think having /usr/bin/tack coming from one curses-like implementation and /usr/bin/infocmp coming from a completely different one would be quite confusing. Mixing them can't be the right answer, can it? -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
