Not all that long ago I posted a similar question, and this list pointed 
me in right direction. (I had used the vt102 termcap with mixed results 
for several years.) I have numerous people running gnome terminal 
sessions on Fedora core boxes accessing filepro on a remote linux 
server. The answer was to simply run gnome terminal. There are a few 
settings within gnome terminal to set, but set no specific termcap. It 
works great. Good emulation, all Fkeys work, etc. Please email if you 
have any specific questions. I hope this helps.
