terminfo

Way 1 - Copying the binary (compiled) terminal description.
The binary is found (on the PC) at /usr/share/terminfo/c/cygwin
you need to copy it to the same location on the linux. Check the
man page of "terminfo" for the exact file name on the solaris.
You need root permission to put it on linux/solaris.

Way 2 - Uncompile and re-compile.
2.1 On the PC do: infocmp -I -1 cygwin > cygwin.src
2.2 On the UNIX do: tic -v cygwin.src
If you run 2.2 as root the definition will be system wide,
otherwise it will be installed in your home directory
($HOME/.terminfo).
