Ah! So you don't use the real full filename of the file, you refer to terminfo_qdos as terminfo? So the filename must be made up of the joined together TERMINFO and TERM strings. Jonathan's manuals are awful for those of us with no knowledge of Unix/Linux. In fact I'd go as far as to say they'll put anyone off. And as for supplying a zip file which won't unzip without manual renaming of many files (which is what the path name lengths issue amounts to) well need I say more. It works now and just goes to show how lucky we are on this list to have our collective selves to help each other, especially people like Marcel.
Do you want to put together a new zip which we can extract on the QL please Dilwyn...
And maybe your sample boot file
