I'm fairly certain that Hemlock in terminal mode requires some sort
of termcap compatibility. I don't know whether this is supplied by
something else these days, but very few people seem to use Hemlock,
so I thought I'd just mention it, in case Hemlock-in-terminal does
not work without it, and people wonder what it's for.
