Televideo 970 termcap entry for revision E firmware

[phil at sequel.UUCP]

We have a bunch of tvi970s using a termcap entry I threw together long
ago.  It seems to work ok but thanks for the new entries!  One thing I
noticed that is a must if you run 19.2k is to use the stty option
called "decctlq".  (4.X BSD only I believe) This option means only
restart suspended output (from an ^S) when a *start* (^Q) char is
received (the default is any time a char is received).  This is a must
because without it if you are typing at the editor just as it is
redrawing the screen it totally looses its cookies (from overrun).

One thing really bothers me.  Although the terminal comes with several
pages of memory the stupid firmware only scrolls in one window at a
time.  What I would like is something similar to the HP 2621A where you
can flip back to look at things after they scroll by (the hp uses all
the pages on a scroll basis).  I used the HP for a year and really got
used to that feature.  Anybody know how to make it do that? Also, how
do you tell what rev firmware you got?  Tnx..  With all this brain
damaged firmware I would love to get a copy of the firmware and FIX it!
(use the source Luke...) Is Televideo listening out there!!!!!!!

PS:  This is not meant to be a flame against TVI terminals.  I have
     done that in the past with the early HP 2621B but it truly deserved it.
