I've put a wrapper around the FilePro 'p' command that
manipulates the TERM environment variable.  Something like this:

#!/bin/bash
PFPROG=/home/appl
PFDATA=/home
PFDIR=/appl
PFDSK=/home/appl
PFMENU=/home/appl/fp/menus
PFGLOB=/home/appl/fp/lib/edits
PFCONFIG="/home/appl/fp/lib/config"
TERMCAP="/home/appl/fp/termcap"
TERMCAP="/csoft/etc/fptermcap"
case "$TERM" in
    xterm|xterm-color) TERM=xterm-linux; export TERM;;
    SCO) TERM=scoansi; export TERM;;
esac
export PFPROG PFDATA PFDIR PFDSK PFMENU PFGLOB PFCONFIG TERMCAP
/home/appl/fp/p "$@"
