ok - vt100 differs from vt102, e.g., from infocmp:

comparing vt100 to vt102.
    comparing booleans.
        mir: F:T.
    comparing numbers.
    comparing strings.
        dch1: NULL, '\E[P'.
        dl1: NULL, '\E[M'.
        il1: NULL, '\E[L'.
        rmir: NULL, '\E[4l'.
        smir: NULL, '\E[4h'.

(the main thing is the dl1/il1/dch1 - delete/insert line, delete character).
