The terminal definition is in the GNU Curses 5.4, but you can cut and paste the entry below and "tic" it.

Alternatively you can cd into /usr/share/terminfo/a (or possibly r) and run "infocmp regent25"

Code:

 #### Applied Digital Data Systems (adds)
#
# ADDS itself is long gone. ADDS was bought by NCR, and the same group made
# ADDS and NCR terminals. When AT&T and NCR merged, the engineering for
# terminals was merged again. Then AT&T sold the terminal business to
# SunRiver, which later changed its name to Boundless Technologies. The
# engineers from Teletype, AT&T terminals, ADDS, and NCR (who are still there
# as of early 1995) are at:
#
#   Boundless Technologies
#   100 Marcus Boulevard
#   Hauppauge, NY 11788-3762
#   Vox: (800)-231-5445
#   Fax: (516)-342-7378
#   Web: http://boundless.com
#
# Their voice mail used to describe the place as "SunRiver (formerly ADDS)".
# In 1995 Boundless acquired DEC's terminals business.
#

# Regent: lowest common denominator, works on all regents.
# (regent: renamed ":bc:" to ":le:" -- esr)

   bel=^G, kcub1=^U, kcud1=^J, kcuf1=^F, kcuu1=^Z, khome=^A,
   use=regent20,

However you will almost certainly need a serial port to connect it to with a respawning tty or getty running on it.

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD

tic

TIC(1)							    BSD General Commands Manual 						    TIC(1)

NAME

     tic -- terminfo compiler

SYNOPSIS

     tic [-acSsx] [-o file] source [term1 term2 ...]

DESCRIPTION

     The tic utility compiles terminfo(5) source into a database for use by other programs.  The created database path name is the same as the
     source but with .cdb appended.

     The following options are available:

     -a 	 Do not discard commented out capabilities.

     -c 	 Only check for errors, don't write the final database.

     -o file	 Write the database to file instead of source.cdb.

     -S 	 For term1, term2, ... output a C structure containing name, compiled description, and compiled size.  This can be used to embed
		 terminal descriptions into a program.

     -s 	 Display the number of terminal descriptions written to the database.

     -x 	 Include non standard capabilities defined in the source.

   Extensions To Terminfo
     When tic discovers a use=term capability, the terminal description for term is merged in.	Capabilities do not overwrite previously disovered
     ones and capabilities ending with @ are marked as absent so the terminal does not inherit the capability from used terminals.

EXIT STATUS

     The tic utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

     To maintain your private terminfo definitions, if the system supplied ones do not support your terminal:

	   tic ~/.terminfo

SEE ALSO

     infocmp(1), tput(1), curses(3), terminfo(5)

STANDARDS

     The tic utility works with terminfo files that conform to the X/Open Curses Issue 4, Version 2 (``XCURSES4.2'') standard.
