9term's $TERM

[steve@gec-epl.co.uk (Steve_Kilbane)]

i've got a weird problem with es within 9term - it refuses to overwrite $TERM.
if i do:

; TERM=bill
; TERMCAP=fred

then i do one of:

9term -e /bin/sh -i
9term -e /bin/rc -i

and follow with "echo $TERMCAP $TERM", then they have been set up correctly
by 9term. If however i do:

9term -e /bin/es -i

and echo, TERMCAP has changed, but TERM is still the same. i can't believe that
es is finding out my terminal type, surely?

anyone got any ideas?
