.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fB\%@INFOTOCAP@\fP looks in each given text
-\fIfile\fP for \fIterminfo\fP descriptions.
+\fB\%@INFOTOCAP@\fP translates terminal descriptions.
+It looks in each given text \fIfile\fP for \fI\%terminfo\fP entries and,
For each one found,
-it writes an analogous \fItermcap\fP description to the standard output
-stream.
-\fIterminfo\fP \*(``\fBuse\fP\*('' capabilities are translated directly
-to \fItermcap\fP \fBtc\fP capabilities.
-Because \fItermcap\fP is a less expressive format than \fIterminfo\fP,
+it writes an analogous \fI\%termcap\fP description to the standard
+output stream.
+\fI\%terminfo\fP \*(``\fBuse\fP\*('' capabilities translate to
+\fI\%termcap\fP \fBtc\fP capabilities.
+Because \fI\%termcap\fP is a less expressive format than
+\fI\%terminfo\fP,
some capabilities cannot be translated.

+The \fB\-V\fP option reports the version of \fI\%ncurses\fP associated
with this program and exits with a successful status.
