I mean those escaped characters used by "aptitude" or "mutt"
to draw terminal-graphic interface are not interpreted by Screen
properly, so that color lines and blocks,etc. are displayed
inproperly. I try use termcap command in .screenrc to change 
the $TERMCAP of Screen, but the "termcap ..." lines simply
have no effect.
