<STRONG>toe</STRONG> reports to the standard output stream the (primary) names and
descriptions of the terminal types available to the <EM>terminfo</EM> library.

finds.
- If the <STRONG>-s</STRONG> option is also given, <STRONG>toe</STRONG> adds a column to the
- report, showing (like <STRONG>conflict(1)</STRONG>) which entries belong to a

Without the <STRONG>-s</STRONG> option, <STRONG>toe</STRONG> does not attempt to merge
duplicates in its report.
