Slightly tangential, but termcap is used when the program in question
is configured to use it, regardless of the environment, and even though
termcap is obsolete for some decades, some gnu/linux distributions still
force some programs (typically bash) to use termcap instead of terminfo. I
don't know if slackware is one of those, but you can usually check using
"ldd /bin/bash" to see whether it links against termcap or tinfo.
