Newsgroup: comp.sys.palmtops

Yesterday I crafted a termcap entry for the HP-95LX.  It is more
complicated than adjusting rows and columns, because it has to
work on the bottom left corner of the screen, rather than the top
left for scrolling to work (you still need dispctl -c).  I had vi 
working without a problem with the following script:

dispctl -c
rvi %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
dispctl +c

The terminal emulation file I was using, was nansi.sys (recently posted
to comp.binaries.ibm.pc), but ansi.sys should also work.  Here is the
termcap file:
