cnorm / t_ve terminal question

[mckel...@gmail.com]

Hi,

If my terminal has -

civis=\E[?25l,

cnorm=\E[?12l\E[?25h

cvvis=\E[?12;25h

Then in vim I see -

t_vi=^[[?25l      

t_VS=^[[?12l      

t_vs=^[[?12h    

t_ve=^[[?25h      

But if my terminal has -

civis=\E[?25l,

cnorm=\E[34h\E[?25h

cvvis=\E[34l

Then in vim I see -

t_vi=^[[?25l

t_VS= 

t_vs=^[[34l

t_ve=^[[34h^[[?25h

It does not seem that vim is parsing the cnorm the same way ?

I would have thought t_VS would be ^[[34h and t_ve be ^[[?25h ?

Anyone know why its parsed/calculated differently ?

I can force t_ve  but just want to understand.

thx for all things vim,

termlib/termcap works with two namespaces: the longer form and the two
letter form. Vim uses the two letter form. Inside the library these
are translated into the longer form, if needed.

Vim fetches "ve", "vi", "vs" and "VS", I'm not sure how these map to the
longer form.
