The first 6 months that I had my system up and running a setting for TERM or TERMCAP in .profile - "echo $TERM" and "echo $TERMCAP" would produce nothing - yet the system - vi and such would work fine. in X "echo $TERMCAP" would produce the entire listing from termcap file. NOW I have to set TERMCAP to /etc/termcap for it to work. My question is: How does the system know what TERM and TERMCAP to use if it is not set in .profile? Why is the system not setting these variable auto-like it did in the past? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
