TERM is an environment variable of your shell.
Two shells will not accept the export line above,
Bourne and C-shell.
With Bourne yo must break it into two lines like this...
TERM=ansi
export TERM
With C-shell they do not have the export command instead
use 'setenv' and a SPACE between the variableneme and the value...
setenv TERM ansi
You can find out what shell you are running by...
echo $SHELL
