Now whenever I launch Eterm, it is setting my TERM to Eterm instead of vt100 or vt102. This is causing some problems with a few apps such as vi, vim, and less. I can easily fix this by setting the TERM variable to vt102, but it is quite annoying. Is there a way to the port to set the default TERM to vt100 or vt102 or xterm or someting. Here is a copy of a few of the errors I recieve in my apps. vim Cannot open termcap file 'Eterm' not known. Available builtin terminals are: builtin_gui builtin_ansi builtin_xterm builtin_iris-ansi builtin_dumb defaulting to 'ansi' (It works, but I have to use the old style fo moving the curser rather than being able to use the arrow keys) vi No terminal database found less WARNING: terminal is not fully functional Here are descriptions of some other apps I have problems with. top displays process information, but immediatly exits with no error message more displays one page of information and exits immediatly man up arrow does not work to scroll up and I recive a message at the bottom of the screen with the current byte of the file I am viewing. -- Thank you for your help, Jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
