- With no options, toe lists all available terminal types by primary name - with descriptions. File arguments specify the directories to be - scanned; if no such arguments are given, your default terminfo direc- - tory is scanned. If you also specify the -h option, a directory header - will be issued as each directory is entered. + toe reports to the standard output stream the (primary) names and + descriptions of the terminal types available to the terminfo library. + Each directory is scanned; if none are given, toe scans the default + terminfo directory. - There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers: - -a report on all of the terminal databases which ncurses would - search, rather than only the first one that it finds. +
+ The -h option can be helpful to observe where toe is looking for + terminal descriptions. Other options support maintainers of terminfo + terminal descriptions. - If the -s is also given, toe adds a column to the report, show- - ing (like conflict(1)) which entries which belong to a given - terminal database. An "*" marks entries which differ, and "+" - marks equivalent entries. + -a lists entries from all terminal database directories that + terminfo would search, instead of only the first that it + finds. - Without the -s option, toe does not attempt to merge duplicates - in its report + If -s is also given, toe additionally reports, like + conflict(1), which entries correspond to a given terminal + database. An "*" marks entries that differ, and "+" marks + equivalent entries. - -s sort the output by the entry names. + Without the -s option, toe does not attempt to merge + duplicates in its report. - -u file - says to write a report to the standard output, listing dependen- - cies in the given terminfo/termcap source file. The report con- - denses the "use" relation: each line consists of the primary - name of a terminal that has use capabilities, followed by a - colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary names of all - terminals which occur in those use capabilities, followed by a - newline + -h writes a heading naming each each directory as it is accessed. - -U file - says to write a report to the standard output, listing reverse - dependencies in the given terminfo/termcap source file. The - report reverses the "use" relation: each line consists of the - primary name of a terminal that occurs in use capabilities, fol- - lowed by a colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary - names of all terminals which depend on it, followed by a new- - line. + -s sorts the output by the entry names. - -vn specifies that (verbose) output be written to standard error, - showing toe's progress. + -u file lists terminal type dependencies in file, a terminfo entry + source or termcap database file. The report summarizes the + "use" (terminfo) and tc (termcap) relations: each line + comprises the primary name of a terminal type employing use/tc + capabilities, a colon, a space- and tab-separated list of + primary names of terminal types thus named, and a newline. - The optional parameter n is a number from 1 to 10, interpreted - as for tic(1m). If ncurses is built without tracing support, - the optional parameter is ignored. + -U file lists terminal type reverse dependencies in file, a terminfo + entry source or termcap database file. The report summarizes + the "use" (terminfo) and tc (termcap) reverse relations: each + line comprises the primary name of a terminal type occurring + in use/tc capabilities, a colon, a space- and tab-separated + list of primary names of terminal types naming them thus, and + a newline. - -V reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, - and exits. + -v [n] reports verbose status information to the standard error + stream, showing toe's progress. + + The optional parameter n is an integer between 1 and 10 + inclusive, interpreted as for tic(1m). If ncurses is built + without tracing support, n is ignored. + + -V reports the version of ncurses associated with this program + and exits with a successful status.
