I am relatively new to the world of unix programming and vim. I had previously installed vim-5.7 on my mac (under osx ) using instructions found at mac os x hints.com. In those instructions the author had a sample of his .vimrc file that he was running, which included color syntaxing and being able to use the arrow keys to navigate. Since installing vim-5.8, I receive the following errors, then vim starts up with no color syntaxing and no cursor control using the arrow keys.Terminal entry not found in terminfo
'vt100' not known. Available builtin terminals are:
builtin_gui
builtin_ansi
builtin_xterm
builtin_iris-ansi
builtin_dumb
defaulting to 'ansi'
Terminal entry not found in terminfo
'beos-ansi' not known. Available builtin terminals are:

Below in a list of my .vimrc file that I'm running. Being new to this type of stuff I'm not even sure what alot of these things do, but I do enjoy being able to use color-syntaxing, using the arrow keys, being able to use the delete key to edit lines while in insert mode, and having the tab set to what I like.

Any ides that you can give me would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to bring back my settings I had in vim-5.7 to vim-5.8.
Thanks.
