Hi,
I am trying to create a very limited version of qnx4.25 to put on a
small CompactFlash card. I would like to have vedit on the card. I tried
copying over the /qnx4/vedit directory onto my Flash disk, but when I
run vedit I get the following message
term_load error. No such file or directory
does anyone have any idea why?

Nevermind, forgot to add the terminfo directory in /usr/lib to the Flash
card.

I think you need the /usr/lib/terminfo/q/* stuff.
Or maybe you need /etc/termcap.
One of the two – there are two different libraries for doing
terminal independent programming – termlib and termcap – and
one needs /etc/termcap, and the other needs the /usr/lib/terminfo stuff.

Ok, vedit works now, it even works in telnet (when using Kermit95) but I also
want to make vi work in case someone is just using regular telnet.
It works fine in standard qnx, but when run in telnet I get this message
Unrecognized TERM type
does anyone know why? Perhaps I have not setup telnetd right somehow, although
it works fine in Kermit95 using the qansi type.

You might need to change the TERM environment variable when you telnet to
whatever server you’re connecting with. For example, when I telnet to my
FreeBSD machine, and try to do terminal-dependent stuff, I have to set TERM
to be vt100 (or whatever term type you want). Then it seems to work.
