I'd like to see the text terminals fixed up again so that Home and End
keys work in emacs -nw, joe, jed, whatever other places that are under
ncurses controls.
Text? Not xterm/gnome-terminal/etc?
I thought all the complaints were about the latter.
There seems to be no least common denominator terminfo that can be
called "xterm" that satisfies the gnome-terminal, konsole, and xorg
xterm camp all at the same time. I believe that the best solution may be
to leave the xterm definition in the terminfo as stock, and set the TERM
to point to a more specific entry, if one can be deduced, during term
shell initialization.
