     11putty (puttyssh.org) is an xterm-compliant terminal emulator with  
     12mouse support, and has its own terminfo definition file that  
     13instructs ncurses how to correctly recognize the keys received, but  
     14in 'src/main.c' the 'if..' block does tests only on xterm, rxvt,  
     15and dtterm terminals. 
    1216 
     17i used TERM=xterm-color, but when i found the terminfo file 'putty- 
     18256color' i wanted to use it. 
     19After standard compilation everythyng was running well (home/end  
     20keys, and all others), but mc had no mouse support. 
     21 
     22actually i have corrected this problem adding the comparison: 
     23 
     24|| strncmp (termvalue, "putty", 5) == 0 
     25 
     26in the main.c file, in function init_xterm_support(), but i suggest  
     27to insert a parameter in a global option file, in wich a sysadmin  
     28could insert a line such as: 
     29 
     30[xterm-compliant] 
     31xterm* 
     32rxvt* 
     33dtterm 
     34putty* 
     35fooxterm* 
     36barxterm* 
     37... 
     38 
     39and so on. 
     40thank you for the time spent in reading my opinions.

     51Anyway, I think that your suggestion about adding a new section to  
     52the configuration file makes sense.
