EPSON PX-8 terminfo

Found this terminfo definition on the Level 29 BBS, and I though I would post it to the web to make it easier for others who are looking for this to find it.

After a bit of experimentation I manged to create my own terminfo definition
file that seems to do the job. I thought I would post it just in case anyone
else runs into the same problem in the future.

It doesn't look like the regular definitions as I decided to use octal
character codes rather than the more usual control codes, but it works for me.
I am sure there are those with way more experience on this BBS who could do a
better job ...
