- setenv TERM vt100 (CR) : Sets `TERM' variable to type `vt100', which should be the default and can be checked by using `printenv', else use `h19b' or your correct terminal emulation if recognizable by the remote host. The recognizable terminal type are in the alphabetized subdirectories of `/usr/lib/terminfo', e.g., `v' directory contains vt100 listings. Caution: `YTERM' is ideal for PC to CMS communication, but does not have a terminal type that is recognizable by UNIX systems ('vt100' may sometimes work as a substitute, but `unknown' type means a poor line edit session).
setenv TERMCAP vt100 (CR) : Sets `TERMCAP' variable to type `vt100', else use `h19b' etc. You can put customized terminal configuration in the file `.termcap' and enable it with the command `setenv TERMCAP $HOME.termcap' either in your shell or in your '.login' file.
tset -m :h19b (CR) : Sets terminal type to Heathkit or Zenith type `h19b'. WARNING: Several terminal commands are given here, because you might have to try several before you find one that works. Note that one of the biggest problems in working with advanced, remote computers is COMMUNICATION and that much of this local guide is intended to solve communication problems.
stty erase \[key](CR) : Set or reset the terminal (`tty') erase key to `[key]'.
stty all (CR) : Display usual Control characters; with arguments can be use to set terminal communication variables; also try `stty everything'.
