Issue with PuTTY

I noticed a while ago that recent versions of Ubuntu expose an issue with PuTTY that affects curses applications, including the NetHack curses interface, causing window borders and backgrounds to not display correctly. To fix it, create a file ~/.terminfo/putty with the following contents:

rep@ use=xterm

Then set the environment variable TERM to putty.
