I'd like to use the vt320 terminal type in my terminal emulator. When I connect to my test linux box from the Emulator Sample application (SshVtClient.45) and use vi it works fine, but when I try to use that terminal type with vi from my own application connected to the same linux machine, I get this error:
{E437: terminal capability "cm" required}

I used a lot of the same code from the sample application with a few changes.
What am I missing?

Update: This error only occurs if I am sudo as root. I can recreate it in the sample application so I'm not missing anything after all.

Does anyone know if there is a way around that?

Ignore this question. vt320 isn't available on the server I'm connected to. That would account for the error. I discovered this by running this command: ls /lib/terminfo/*
