<STRONG>infocmp</STRONG> can be used to compare a binary <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> entry with other
terminfo entries, rewrite a <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> description to take advantage of
the <STRONG>use=</STRONG> terminfo field, or print out a <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> description from the
- binary file (<STRONG>term</STRONG>) in a variety of formats. In all cases, the boolean
+ binary file (<STRONG>term</STRONG>) in a variety of formats. In all cases, the Boolean
fields will be printed first, followed by the numeric fields, followed
by the string fields.
<EM>type</EM> is specified, the <STRONG>-d</STRONG> option will be assumed.

<STRONG>infocmp</STRONG> compares the <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> description of the first terminal
<EM>terminal-type</EM> with each of the descriptions given by the entries for
the other terminal's <EM>terminal-types</EM>. If a capability is defined for
only one of the terminals, the value returned depends on the type of
the capability:
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>F</STRONG> for missing boolean variables
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>F</STRONG> for missing Boolean variables
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> for missing integer or string variables
variable <EM>TERM</EM> for each of the <EM>terminal-types</EM>.

The <STRONG>-I</STRONG>, <STRONG>-L</STRONG>, and <STRONG>-C</STRONG> options will produce a source listing for each
terminal named.
- <STRONG>-I</STRONG> use the <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> names
- <STRONG>-L</STRONG> use the long C variable name listed in <<STRONG>term.h</STRONG>>
- <STRONG>-C</STRONG> use the <STRONG>termcap</STRONG> names
- <STRONG>-r</STRONG> when using <STRONG>-C</STRONG>, put out all capabilities in <STRONG>termcap</STRONG> form
- <STRONG>-K</STRONG> modifies the <STRONG>-C</STRONG> option, improving BSD-compatibility.
+ <STRONG>-I</STRONG> use <EM>terminfo</EM> capability codes
+ <STRONG>-L</STRONG> use "long" capability names
+ <STRONG>-C</STRONG> use <EM>termcap</EM> capability codes
+ <STRONG>-r</STRONG> with <STRONG>-C</STRONG>, include nonstandard capabilities
+ <STRONG>-K</STRONG> with <STRONG>-C</STRONG>, improve BSD compatibility
If no <EM>terminal-types</EM> are given, the environment variable <EM>TERM</EM> will be
used for the terminal name.
Some common <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> parameter sequences, their <STRONG>termcap</STRONG> equivalents,
and some terminal types which commonly have such sequences, are:

The <STRONG>-u</STRONG> option produces a <STRONG>terminfo</STRONG> source description of the first
terminal <EM>terminal-type</EM> which is relative to the sum of the descriptions
given by the entries for the other <EM>terminal-types</EM>. It does this by
