      Where can I find a good termcaps file?


    I don't have a file in termcap format but the terminfo I use is in my 
bucket.  It's by far the most comprehensive of those I've come across:


    http://public.nachomountain.com/files/m100/


  The original source of that terminfo is here:


      https://github.com/hackerb9/tandy-terminfo


  It does work pretty well and I haven't had to update it in a while so the 
copy in Joshua's Nacho Mountain is probably current. But I still recommend 
checking out the original github page as it has extra tips on how to use it and 
how to work around programs which do not use terminfo. (Unfortunately, the 
number of programs doing that is growing every year.) It also has a handy 
script for setting up the workarounds, currently called td200 because I only 
have a Tandy 200 to test on. I'd love to get feedback from people with other 
machines so I can make it more general.


  By the way, if a termcap is actually needed, the infotocap program (which 
comes with ncurses) will create one for you.
