Subject: Status line entries in termcap      

The status line entries are as follows (as used by sysline):

	hs	Boolean		Terminal has status line
	es	Boolean		OK to use so/se on status line
	i2	String		Second init string - printed by sysline
	ts	String		To status line; should clear unused part
	fs	String		From status line; returns to previous loc
	ds	String		Disable status line; printed with sysline
				is sent a SIGHUP

You forgot:
	ws	Numeric		Width of status line, if diff. than "co".

I have a version of sysline with bugs fixed (it works with magic-cookie
terminals), if anyone's interested (mail to me, please)....
