Which works ok, as long as you have a sufficiently recent version of
the filePro termcap file.  Since fpTech Release Engineering (<roar))
doesn't bother to put release numbers in these things, I can't tell you
exactly which one it is I use, but I'm pretty sure all the 5.0's will
let you do that unmodified.  It *might* need to be from a Linux version
of filePro -- ISTR that I could do it with 4.8/Linux, but *not* with
4.8/SCO.
