i frequently login to a remote freebsd system. freebsd uses termcap. is
there a way to convert my linux and xterm-debian entries from terminfo to
termcap format? tic *claims* to be able to convert terminfo *source* to
termcap but it doesn't work; even if it did it doesn't know how to convert
terminfo binary to source (i had to do it on the termcap-using other
system... odd, huh?).

are there any veterans in the battle against terminfo databases on this
list? if not, is there anyone who knows what list i should be writing to?

tia,
