But ncurses did not provide the description for _Emacs_ "eterm-color" 
before.  It's only provided the "eterm".

"Eterm-color" is for the "Eterm" terminal emulator (one of the rxvt 
variations).

Adding the Emacs file has been a low-priority to-do item (since no one's
even mentioned it for quite a while, and the last I recall of that was
a suggestion that the feature should be rolled into "eterm").

Here's the terminfo source you should probably use for "eterm-color":

#       Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /subsys/emacs-21.4/etc/e/eterm
eterm-color,
        am, mir, xenl,

        kcud1=\EOB, kcuf1=\EOC, kcuu1=\EOA, kend=\E[4~,
        khome=\E[1~, knp=\E[6~, kpp=\E[5~, rev=\E[7m,
        rmcup=\E[2J\E[?47l\E8, rmir=\E[4l, rmso=\E[m, rmul=\E[m,
        setab=\E[%p1%{40}%+%dm, setaf=\E[%p1%{30}%+%dm,
        sgr0=\E[m, smcup=\E7\E[?47h, smir=\E[4h, smso=\E[7m,
        smul=\E[4m,

(infocmp on Mac is supposed to handle the case-sensitivity by mapping
names)
