Hello,

 I posted a while back that the RHIDE stock binary RPM was crashing on my
system. I've figured out what's wrong with it (using `strace' which is a
wonderful tool  ;)  RHIDE looks for the terminfo entries in
`/usr/share/terminfo' but they really are in `/usr/lib/terminfo' on my Red
Hat Linux as well as most UNIX'es I've seen. By symlinking
/usr/lib/terminfo to /usr/share/terminfo, I got it to run.

 Now if only the mouse and function keys worked..  ;)
(I was running it from a Windoze NT X server, so I suppose the X server
was capturing keystrokes "special" to Windoze, but I can use the X
cut-and-paste between different Xterms, so the mousing _should_ work in
RHIDE).
