Using your instructions I get two files with approximately
50 lines of codes, but I don't really have an idea how and
what to check. I compared some sequences manually, they
were all equal. But for instance some sequences (e.g.
smso=\E[7m) are only found in the infocmp output.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try to gather as much
information as possible.
