terminfo
========================================================================
A fork of the terminfo database normally distributed with the ncurses
package.

As contrasted with the backwards-compatible terminfo0 package, in this
version the database entries are arranged by the two-char hex code of
the first letter of the entry name, rather than by that first letter
itself.  The older arrangement can cause problems on case-insensitve
file systems. That is:
   old:   r/rxvt    R/Rxvt    (clash!)
   new:   72/rxvt   52/Rxvt   (no clash)
Both versions of the database can be installed at the same time. The
newer structure is used by cygncurses-9.dll and its clients. The older
structure is used by cygncurses-8.dll and its clients.

========================================================================

Build instructions:
  unpack terminfo-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X-src.tar.bz2
    if you use setup to install this src package, it will be
	 unpacked under /usr/src automatically
  cd /usr/src
  cygport ./terminfo-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X.cygport all

This will create:
  /usr/src/terminfo-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X.tar.bz2
  /usr/src/terminfo-extra-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X.tar.bz2
  /usr/src/termcap-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X.tar.bz2
  /usr/src/terminfo-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X-src.tar.bz2

Or use 'cygport ./terminfo-5.7_YYYYMMDD-X.cygport prep' to get a 
patched source directory

To find out the files included in the binary distribution, you can
use "cygcheck -l terminfo", or browse the listing for the appropriate
version at <http://cygwin.com/packages/>.

Port Notes:

----------  terminfo-5.7_20091114-13 -- 2009 Nov 30 -----------
* Use 'tic -C -r' when generating termcap; fixes segfault in xterm.

----------  terminfo-5.7_20091114-12 -- 2009 Nov 26 -----------
* Fix packaging bugs
  + move nsterm-old from -extra to base package
* Revert -11 change: don't include old, obsolete, unsupported-by-
  terminfo terminal type defns, even if the old termcap had them.

----------  terminfo-5.7_20091114-11 -- 2009 Nov 21 -----------
* Fix bugs in generated termcap file
  + include all dependent terminal types
  + add old terminal aliases from original /etc/termcap
  + add a small number of terminal type defns that were unique
    to cygwin's original /etc/termcap
* Include in /etc/termcap hicolor variants of putty, xterm,
  rxvt, and screen.
 
----------  terminfo-5.7_20091114-10 -- 2009 Nov 20 -----------
* Update to latest upstream
* Generate /etc/termcap from terminfo source
* Includes patches to change the backspace key from ^H to \177
  (that is, ^?) on screen, cygwin, and xterm.  As the default behavior
  of screen itself is to use ^? for backspace, this agrees with current
  behavior. Recently cygwin-1.7's console handling code was changed to
  also use ^? for backspace (but not cygwin-1.5's) -- so this version
  of terminfo, unlike the -1 release for cygwin-1.5, also changes the
  terminal database info for the cygwin console to match.  Finally,
  it is expected that soon, the cygwin-1.7 version of xterm will also
  change to use ^? -- but it does not yet do so (and we do not expect
  the cygwin-1.5 version of xterm to ever change in this way).  So,
  for now, on cygwin-1.7, you may need to add the following lines
	*backarrowKeyIsErase: true
        *ptyInitialErase: true
  to your /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm file after installing this
  edition of terminfo.

----------  terminfo-5.7_20090228-10 -- 2009 Feb 28 -----------
* Fork for cygwin-1.7 development
* Build with cygport-0.9.4

----------  terminfo-5.7_20090228-1 -- 2009 Feb 28 -----------
* Resync'ed with 20090228 patchlevel of ncurses-5.7
* Split into two packages:
  - terminfo contains what Fedora 'ncurses-base' does;
    basically, cygwin, vt*, xterm*, putty*, screen*, and rxvt*
    with a few others.
  - terminfo-extra contains everything else

----------  terminfo-5.5_20061104-1 -- 2006 Nov 15 -----------
