   When I'm running wterm in X: TERM=3Dxterm

   screen: TERM=3Dscreen

   wscons console: TERM=3Dvt220

   As Bernard asks while flying back in time in a Cron-o-John: "But what
does it all mean?".

   I'm beginning to understand some of this now, though.

   I tried setting TERM=3Dxterm in a wscons[1] console, and then started
"mc". Funny. All black. Doesn't seem to respond to anything I do.


[1] The official name of full screen text mode sessions in i386/amd64 is
"wscons console"?
