 # This is an adaptation of ncurses' termcap/terminfo capability table, which

+# FORMATTING THE TABLES
+#
+# We manually specify a (minimum) column width for the capability name
+# and terminfo code columns in the tables to achieve a consistent
+# arrangement; as used here, tbl(1) cannot know the width required by
+# one table's data while formatting another's.
+#
+# The longest capability names (C variables) are
+# "enter_near_letter_quality" and "bit_image_carriage_return" (tied at
+# 25n), and the longest terminfo code is "setcolor" (8n).
+#
+# The tables are a tight fit on traditional man(7) implementations that
+# use a line length of 65n, and the "Description" column has little room
+# within which the formatter can make breaking or adjustment decisions.
+# Words like "micro_..._address" and "parm_..._micro" don't break.
+# Reducing the inter-column gaps to 2 ens gives them enough room.  --GBR
