terminfo-1.9.9e.README 
June 1996

This archive contains an Installer.app package for terminfo terminal
definitions as extracted from the ncurses-1.9.9e (I have a copy of the
1.9.4 version too) distribution.  These definitions are the minimum
requirement to be able to use ncurses-linked programs.

NOTE:  ncurses SUPPOSEDLY has a termcap compiler so that it can translate TERMCAP into TERMINFO, but it doesn't work for NEXTSTEP.  A combination of subtle TERMCAP and termcap compiler bugs, I suspect.
