you could put 9term in terminfo as a synonym of "dumb".
(i think it understands backspace, but that's about it)

if you want to use a cursor addressing program, run "vt".

  rog.

Hullo 9fans,

fed up with
  unknown terminal "9term"
I tried to sort it out but was instantly outside of my understanding
(not far to go)
Anyone got a terminfo entry I can use?

 (I) (B)lame (M)icrosoft?
