You have to wonder why we kept some of that in later distros. I wouldn't have a distro that couldn't handle a VT-100 terminal type.

The Apollo Color display? I could do without that. ;)

On this system

cat /etc/termcap | wc

Comes back with 20664 27606 969976

Lots 'o cruft.

Got an RS-232 breakout box?

Ruh roh. We have a winner in the UUOC in this thread! :-) Just joshing of course since I often do things like:

cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i bogomips

See the Useless Use of Cat Award form letter and other hits on UUOC for a chuckle or two.
