Looked into it. Not worth it. First I'd have to reorder the whole list
using another script. And we'd loose all the informative comments. etc.
I'll just update my package from time to time with the latest directly
from the ncurses site. And it's not like the main entries (vt100, linux,
etc.) are changing *that* often anyways. And it's simpler that way.
