I'm not that busy with anything, but I'm also lazy. So if you want to work on 
it, go right ahead. I've been working with the version of termcap.c the 
author sent me. So far, I've reformatted the comments, dispensed with the 
large amount of spacing, converted the functions to ANSI form. I've also 
changed tputs to not output the padding format string after reviewing the 
netbsd and gnu termcap libs.

I can send or post to the list the version the author sent and my revised 
version. I would put them on my nbci website so anyone could work on it, but 
nbci is getting out of the web page biz as of this weekend so my site and 
everything on it is likely to disappear real soon now.
