72: Where is the termcap/terminfo entry for terminal type "emacs"?
The termcap entry for terminal type "emacs" is ordinarily put in the
TERMCAP environment variable of subshells. It may help in certain
situations (e.g., using rlogin from shell buffer) to add an entry for
"emacs" to the system-wide termcap file. Here is a correct termcap entry
for "emacs":
emacs:tc=unknown:
To make a terminfo entry for "emacs", use "tic" or "captoinfo." You need
to generate /usr/lib/terminfo/e/emacs. It may work to simply copy
/usr/lib/terminfo/d/dumb to /usr/lib/terminfo/e/emacs.
Having a termcap/terminfo entry will not enable the use of full screen
programs in shell buffers. Use M-x terminal-emulator for that instead.
A workaround to the problem of missing termcap/terminfo entries is to
change terminal type "emacs" to type "dumb" or "unknown" in your shell
start up file. "csh" users could put this in their .cshrc files:
if ("$term" == emacs) set term=dumb
