[U2] terminfo issues after a UV restore
We recently had a system crash. I had to re-install UV, then overwrote the UV directory from a backup prior to the crash. Universe seems to work fine, except the terminfo is a little screwy I get a $5 when using the @(x,y) positioning. How do I recompile the terminfo database? Or if I remember correctly I had to edit the terminfo for vt100 to remove the characters.

yes. Found it in the manual finally. Online Manuals are harder to find things, You would think that the infomation would be referenced on how to do this under terminfo Oh wellnow the next fish to fry...I mean fix to fry.

Re: [U2] terminfo issues after a UV restore
To recompile the terminfo definitions use uvtic -a vt100.src where vt100.src is the source definition file that you altered (presumably created initially by uvtidc). If you want to recompile the originals, there is a terminfo.src in the sample directory (under the UV account) that you can use. After you've run uvtic also run tiindex to rebuild the list of terminal types used by ? in the SET.TERM.TYPE command. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
