+\fB-q\fR
+Make the comparison listing shorter by omitting subheadings, and using
+"-" for absent capabilities, "@" for canceled rather than "NULL".
+.TP 5
+\fB-R\fR\fIsubset\fR
+Restrict output to a given subset. This option is for use with archaic
+versions of terminfo like those on SVr1, Ultrix, or HP/UX that do not support
+the full set of SVR4/XSI Curses terminfo; and variants such as AIX
+that have their own extensions incompatible with SVr4/XSI. Available terminfo
+subsets are "SVr1", "Ultrix", "HP", and "AIX"; see \fBterminfo\fR(\*n) for
+details. You can also choose the subset "BSD" which selects only capabilities
+with termcap equivalents recognized by 4.4BSD.

+If the \fB-s\fR option is not given, the fields printed out will be
+sorted alphabetically by the \fBterminfo\fR name within each type,
+except in the case of the \fB-C\fR or the \fB-L\fR options, which cause the
+sorting to be done by the \fBtermcap\fR name or the long C variable
+name, respectively.
+.TP 5
+\fB-T\fR
+eliminates size-restrictions on the generated text.
+This is mainly useful for testing and analysis, since the compiled
+descriptions are limited (e.g., 1023 for termcap, 4096 for terminfo).
+.TP
+\fB-t\fR
+tells \fBtic\fP to discard commented-out capabilities.
+Normally when translating from terminfo to termcap,
+untranslatable capabilities are commented-out.
+.TP 5
+\fB-U\fR
+tells \fB@INFOCMP@\fP to not post-process the data after parsing the source file.
+This feature helps when comparing the actual contents of two source files,
+since it excludes the inferences that \fB@INFOCMP@\fP makes to fill in missing
+data.

+\fB-V\fR
+reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits.
