Help running mc on AIX 5.2

["Bright, Frank" <FBright uarts edu>]

To All: 
I have installed mc from the UCLA library. Its version 4.5.52. I've set the
terminfo variable. But the screen still shows as the following. I tried
running mc with the options -ab but there is no -a option under help.  What
else do I need to do?
