NAME
infotocap -
convert a terminfo description into a termcap description
SYNOPSIS
infotocap
[ ti-option]
file
...
infotocap -V
DESCRIPTION
infotocap
translates terminal descriptions.
It looks in each given text
file
for
terminfo
entries and,
for each one found,
writes an analogous
termcap
description to the standard output stream.
terminfo
" use"
capabilities translate to
termcap
tc
capabilities.
Because
termcap
is a less expressive format than
terminfo,
some capabilities cannot be translated.
This utility is implemented as a link to tic(1M),
with the latter's
-C
option implied.
You can use other
tic
options such as
-1,
-f,
-v,
-w,
and
-x.
The
-V
option reports the version of
ncurses
associated with this program and exits with a successful status.
FILES
- /usr/share/terminfo
-
compiled terminal description database
EXTENSIONS
This command is an
ncurses
extension.
PORTABILITY
X/Open Curses Issue 7 (2009) does not specify this command.
SVr4 and NetBSD
curses
do not implement it.
