No, I thought it wasn't necessary - I always compile with
--with-included-slang. And it always worked. Maybe a new
termcap/terminfo broke something.

No... [[2~ . Again sorry.

OK. The same with S-Lang.

Yes. Ditto.

Changes using --with-included-slang:

End, Page Up, Page Down, Delete, Insert: Recognized with
'Learn keys'. But they work using --with-ncurses. The only
problem is that they aren't recognized by 'Learn keys'. Why,
if they work ?

Another problem. Under screen you don't need -c if compiled
with --with-ncurses. If compiled with --with-included-slang
colors aren't displayed without -c.

I tested on Linux console with TERM=linux . F19 and F20
aren't recognized but +, -, and * are.
