+File arguments specify the directories to be scanned; if no

+If you also specify the \fB\-h\fR option,

 There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers:

 report on all of the terminal databases which ncurses would search,
 rather than only the first one that it finds.
+.IP
+If the \fB\-s\fR is also given, \fB@TOE@\fR
+adds a column to the report,
+showing (like \fBconflict\fP(1)) which entries which 
+belong to a given terminal database.
+An "*" marks entries which differ, and "+" marks equivalent entries.
+.IP
+Without the \fB\-s\fP option, \fB@TOE@\fR does not attempt to merge
+duplicates in its report
 .TP
-\fB-u\fR \fIfile\fR

+\fB\-u\fR \fIfile\fR
+says to write a report to the standard output,

+The report condenses the \*(``use\*('' relation:

-\fB-U\fR \fIfile\fR

 The optional parameter \fIn\fR is a number from 1 to 10,
 interpreted as for \fB@TIC@\fR(1M).

 Compiled terminal description database.
+.SH HISTORY
+This utility is not provided by other implementations.
+There is no relevant X/Open or POSIX standard for \fB@TOE@\fP.
+.PP 
+The program name refers to a developer's pun:
+.bP
+\fBtic\fP,
+.bP
+\fBtac\fP (now \fBtack\fP),
+.bP
+\fBtoe\fP.
+.PP
+It replaced a \fB\-T\fP option which was briefly supported by
+the ncurses \fBinfocmp\fP utility in 1995.
+.PP
+The \fB\-a\fP and \fB\-s\fP options were added to 
+\fB@TOE@\fR several years later (2006 and 2011, respectively).
