-: After the latest commit, almost all of the ecma-48 commands that are worth 
-: implementing now work. The only exception is the 'm' command for color.

The implementation of termcap that Mark is developing is much superior
to the elvis-derived `tinytcap' that I had proposed.  Mark is far better
acquainted than I with the overall design requirements, and clearly has
more time than I to give to this project.  Thank you, Mark!

-: Bash comes with gnu termcap

I hadn't thought about this before, but why couldn't GNU termcap have
been ported to djgpp?
