Versions of related programs:

Arch Linux
aerc 0.1.0-4
alacritty-git 0.3.2.1223.g3931fb6f-1
alacritty-terminfo-git 0.3.2.1223.g3931fb6f-1

Set TERM=xterm

Duplicate of #146

I did set $TERM to xterm, but is there a more permenant way of resolving this besides relying on the library maintainer to correct? I prefer not to have to manually set $TERM every time I log into Sway or refresh the config file. How are you all handling this issue more efficiently?

Thanks, Jordan

Works for me just fine with alacritty. tcell loads stuff from the terminfo db by now I think. Which version of aerc do you run? Do update to the master branch and check there please.
