[ale] does anyone here know how to edit or create a new termcap entry?

This is the entry I want to modify if possible.

# CRT is shareware.  It implements some xterm features, including mouse.
crt|crt-vt220|CRT 2.3 emulating VT220:\
        :ms:ut:\
        :NC@:\
        :st=\EH:u6=\E[%i%d;%dR:u7=\E[6n:u8=\E[?1;2c:u9=\E[c:\
        :tc=vt220:tc=ecma+color:

how would I edit this to have the backspace key erase the previously 
typed character?

also would it be possible to edit this term type to have the page up and 
page down keys working properly?

through trial and error I was able to get rand mcnally milemaker for 
Linux 95% working for our NCD X Terminal environment using this term 
type, but If possible I need to get these three keys working. I don't 
know if it's possible to do this, so that's why I'm asking all of you 
great folks on the ALE list for your advice.

thanks for any advice you can offer.

Have a great day

Van
