" "9. If you dont have the file already, drop xterm-color in
" /usr/share/lib/terminfo/x/term-color. Then when/if you use a
" color-supporting xterm, you will be able to correctly set TERM=xterm-color
" and actually have it work properly. (This actually works better for dtterm
" color than its own "dtterm" TERM setting?!!)"
i'm not surprised. terminfo files and termcap defs usually are only
the minimum needed to get vi to work and often leave many usable
terminal attributes undefined.
see infocmp(1m) and tic(1m) if you want to try your own hand.
