Hear, hear.  That's exactly what I was thinking, but I decided I'd check 
out how things are done on some other systems before I opened my mouth.  
So far, either termcap prototypes have been in curses.h (I believe this to 
be evil) or, worse, there were no prototypes at all.  In the latter case 
it was almost forgiveable, since ANSI compilers were only being dreamed of 
when that system was released...
