I would think that if all the terminals were ANSI standard you wouldn't need
to find the terminal type, and you could throw termcap/terminfo out. Just
wondering how useful this knowledge is...

And another miniflame about people who don't want a feature that would be
useful to us (the small systems people) because it's not useful to them.
