unnecessary, because the default is taken from the environment

variables \fBLINES\fR and \fBCOLUMNS\fR will be ignored,and the
operating system will not be queried for the actual screen size.

If no parameters are given for the capability,
\fB@TPUT@\fR writes the string without performing the substitution.

-\fB-S\fR
+\fB\-S\fR
allows more than one capability per invocation of \fB@TPUT@\fR. The
capabilities must be passed to \fB@TPUT@\fR from the standard input
instead of from the command line (see example).
Only one \fIcapname\fR is allowed per line.

.SH EXIT CODES

+If the \fB\-S\fR option is used,
\fB@TPUT@\fR checks for errors from each line,
and if any errors are found, will set the exit code to 4 plus the
number of lines with errors.
No indication of which line failed can be given so
exit code \fB1\fR will never appear. Exit codes \fB2\fR, \fB3\fR, and
\fB4\fR retain their usual interpretation.
-If the \fB-S\fR option is not used,
