My isn't that obvious. Not.

I always assumed they would be architecture/OS-specific in format, so I use
infocmp to export it and tic at the other end to integrate it. This works
for linux, rxvt etc quite nicely. As a non-root user I set my TERMINFO

Could anyone give me a good reference in order to configure a

suggestions?
Thanks in advance
