- Keith Bostic replaced the BSD <STRONG>tput</STRONG> command in 1989 with a new implemen-
- tation based on the AT&T System V program <STRONG>tput</STRONG>. Like the AT&T program,
- Bostic's version accepted some parameters named for <EM>terminfo</EM> <EM>capabili-</EM>
- <EM>ties</EM> (<STRONG>clear</STRONG>, <STRONG>init</STRONG>, <STRONG>longname</STRONG> and <STRONG>reset</STRONG>). However (because he had only
- termcap available), it accepted <EM>termcap</EM> <EM>names</EM> for other capabilities.
- Also, Bostic's BSD <STRONG>tput</STRONG> did not modify the terminal I/O modes as the
- earlier BSD <STRONG>tset</STRONG> had done.
