Changes between Initial Version and Version 1 of Ticket #56873, comment 10

initial	v1
1		I'm not sure which features tclock is using, but your initial screenshots are clearly demonstrating that iTerm lacks repeat character support, as mentioned in the ncurses FAQ. Older versions of terminfo mistakenly do not list xterm as supporting that feature, which is why iTerm works when using the older version. You don't list any iTerm results with TERM=iterm – if that works correctly, then it's definitely a matter of expected vs actual terminal capabilities.
