Well, the xterm entry isn't completely clean for the emulation that iTerm
provides, either; it looks pretty much like the stock terminal does.

I see that under Sessions->Terminal it allows me to set the TERM type, but
I don't see any indication that that sets the actual emulation; key strings
and control sequences and the like.

Does iTerm emulate anything besides an xterm?

Or is it simply ceding that part of the job to an OS/X component identical
to that used by Terminal.

Either way, I'm back to my original question:

Does anyone have an "Xterm" entry for FPtermcap that's tuned specifically
for Macintosh access?

Cheers,
