   Hi all!

this is my 6th compilation of termcap and terminfo databases. It was created
to explore full power of the MiNTOS virtual consoles v0.9a (by Juergen Lock)
and the new TosWin II v2.1 (by Christian Felsch).

Terminal emulations:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- stv52   (standard virtual consoles emulation, similar to st52 but enhanced)
- stv52pc (same as stv52 but with semigraphics characters)
- tw52    (TosWin's original emulation, similar to st52 but enhanced)
- tw100   (TosWin II's vt100 emulation)

Features:
~~~~~~~~~
- working arrow keys (up, down, left, right)
- page up/down keys (actually shifted arrow keys up/down)
- special Atari keys like Help, Undo, Insert, Delete and Clr/Home
- all twenty function keys (F1 thru F10, F11 - F20 are shifted F1-F10)
- Bold, Dim (half-bright), Underline and Reverse font
- Italic font (virtual consoles v0.9 and higher)
- TosWin II's wt52 colors (16 colors, compatible with TOS's VT52 emulator)
- TosWin II's wt100 colors (8 colors, compatible with ANSI definition)
- TosWin II's wt100 semigraphics characters (27 special chars)
- vconsoles PC semigraphics characters (TERM=stv52pc)

History of changes:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6th release: - fixed problem of pico/pine in TosWin
             - added Dim font support to tw52

5th release: - added stv52pc (semigraphics characters) to vcons v0.9a

4th release: - added Dim and Italic support to vconsoles v0.9

Please note that the color emulation is correct only with TosWin version 
higher than 2.0 and only when the provided terminfo files are installed.

Also note that semigraphics characters are OK only when you download 
a proper GDOS font into vconsoles and set TERM=stv52pc.

Installation:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
just do cd /; tar xzvf <package>

You could also set the following two environment variables in your start-up
script:

TERMCAP=/etc/termcap
TERMINFO=/usr/local/share/terminfo
