Then 'man -s 4 terminfo' and read up on the TERMINFO environment
variable. After that, create a ~/terminfo/... hierarchy on the Sun,
copy the xterm-color termcap entry to the Sun, run captoinfo(1m),
compile the result with tic(1m), and populate your private terminfo
tree with the resulting xterm-color terminfo entry. Adjust .profile
or .login as appropriate and away you go.
