[Bug 37491] New: wineconsole requires/uses TERM environment variable

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37491

Bug ID: 37491
           Summary: wineconsole requires/uses TERM environment variable
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

For some reason, wineconsole requires TERM to be set to a valid value. However,
Windows ncurses requires TERM to be unset, clear, or "#win32con" or it starts
talking vt100, which wineconsole doesn't understand.

Hello Luke,

do you have a specific ncurses-based win32 app that breaks because of this?

Regards

I was testing with switching from PDCurses to ncurses for BFGMiner.
A test build is at: http://luke.dashjr.org/tmp/code/f501b32-win64.zip
However, this issue can be reproduced with any application compiled for Windows
against ncurses.
