  Use this like the C-version. In this Modula-2 version, some of the buffers,
  that are explicit in the C-version, are hidden. These buffers are initialized
  by a call to Tgetent. The "ARRAY OF CHAR" parameters must be null-terminated.
  You can call them with a constant string argument, as these are always
  null-terminated in our Modula-2 implementation.
  Unlike the C version, this version takes care of UP, BC, and PC
  automatically. Only ospeed must still be set by the user.
