This option is useful to show the difference between two +entries, created by different people, for the same or similar terminals. + +The \fB-c\fR option produces a list of each capability that is common between +two entries.

These should be edited by hand. + +All padding information for strings will be collected together and placed +at the beginning of the string where \fBtermcap\fR expects it. Mandatory +padding (padding information with a trailing '/') will become optional. + +All \fBtermcap\fR variables no longer supported by \fBterminfo\fR, but which +are derivable from other \fBterminfo\fR variables, will be output. Not all +\fBterminfo\fR capabilities will be translated; only those variables which were +part of \fBtermcap\fR will normally be output. Specifying the \fB-r\fR option +will take off this restriction, allowing all capabilities to be output in +\fItermcap\fR form. + +Note that because padding is collected to the beginning of the capability, not +all capabilities are output. Mandatory padding is not supported. Because +\fBtermcap\fR strings are not as flexible, it is not always possible to convert +a \fBterminfo\fR string capability into an equivalent \fBtermcap\fR format. A +subsequent conversion of the \fBtermcap\fR file back into \fBterminfo\fR format +will not necessarily reproduce the original \fBterminfo\fR +source. + +Some common \fBterminfo\fR parameter sequences, their \fBtermcap\fR +equivalents, and some terminal types which commonly have such sequences, are: + +.TS +center tab(/) ; +l c l +l l l. +\fBterminfo/termcap\fR/Representative Terminals += +\fB%p1%c/%.\fR/adm +\fB%p1%d/%d\fR/hp, ANSI standard, vt100 +\fB%p1%'x'%+%c/%+x\fR/concept +\fB%i/%i\fRq/ANSI standard, vt100 +\fB%p1%?%'x'%>%t%p1%'y'%+%;/%>xy\fR/concept +\fB%p2\fR is printed before \fB%p1/%r\fR/hp +.TE +.SS Use= Option [-u] +The \fB-u\fR option produces a \fBterminfo\fR source description of the first +terminal \fItermname\fR which is relative to the sum of the descriptions given +by the entries for the other terminals \fItermnames\fR. It does this by +analyzing the differences between the first \fItermname\fR and the other +\fItermnames\fR and producing a description with \fBuse=\fR fields for the +other terminals. In this manner, it is possible to retrofit generic terminfo +entries into a terminal's description. Or, if two similar terminals exist, but +were coded at different times or by different people so that each description +is a full description, using \fBinfocmp\fR will show what can be done to change +one description to be relative to the other. + +A capability will get printed with an at-sign (@) if it no longer exists in the +first \fItermname\fR, but one of the other \fItermname\fR entries contains a +value for it. A capability's value gets printed if the value in the first +\fItermname\fR is not found in any of the other \fItermname\fR entries, or if +the first of the other \fItermname\fR entries that has this capability gives a +different value for the capability than that in the first \fItermname\fR. + +The order of the other \fItermname\fR entries is significant. Since the +terminfo compiler \fBtic\fR does a left-to-right scan of the capabilities, +specifying two \fBuse=\fR entries that contain differing entries for the same +capabilities will produce different results depending on the order that the +entries are given in. \fBinfocmp\fR will flag any such inconsistencies between +the other \fItermname\fR entries as they are found. + +Alternatively, specifying a capability \fIafter\fR a \fBuse=\fR entry that +contains that capability will cause the second specification to be ignored. +Using \fBinfocmp\fR to recreate a description can be a useful check to make +sure that everything was specified correctly in the original source +description. + +Another error that does not cause incorrect compiled files, but will slow down +the compilation time, is specifying extra \fBuse=\fR fields that are +superfluous. \fBinfocmp\fR will flag any other \fItermname use=\fR fields that +were not needed. +.. +.SS Changing Databases [-A \fIdirectory\fR] [-B \fIdirectory\fR] +The location of the compiled \fBterminfo\fR database is taken from the +environment variable \fBTERMINFO\fR . If the variable is not defined, or the +terminal is not found in that location, the system \fBterminfo\fR database, +in \fB/usr/share/terminfo\fR, will be used. The options \fB-A\fR +and \fB-B\fR may be used to override this location. The \fB-A\fR option will +set \fBTERMINFO\fR for the first \fItermname\fR and the \fB-B\fR option will +set \fBTERMINFO\fR for the other \fItermnames\fR. With this, it is possible to +compare descriptions for a terminal with the same name located in two different +databases. This is useful for comparing descriptions for the same terminal +created by different people. +.. +.SS Other Options [-s d|i|l|c] [-1FTVefip] [-Rsubset] [-v \fIn\fR] [-w \fIwidth\fR] +The \fB-s\fR option sorts the fields within each type according to the argument +below: +.. +.TP 5 +\fBd\fR +leave fields in the order that they are stored in the \fIterminfo\fR database. +.TP 5 +\fBi\fR +sort by \fIterminfo\fR name. +.TP 5 +\fBl\fR +sort by the long C variable name. +.TP 5 +\fBc\fR +sort by the \fItermcap\fR name. + +If the \fB-s\fR option is not given, the fields printed out will be +sorted alphabetically by the \fBterminfo\fR name within each type, +except in the case of the \fB-C\fR or the \fB-L\fR options, which cause the +sorting to be done by the \fBtermcap\fR name or the long C variable +name, respectively. +.TP 5 +\fB-1\fR +causes the fields to be printed out one to a line. Otherwise, +the fields will be printed several to a line to a maximum width +of 60 characters. +.TP 5 +\fB-F\fR +compare terminfo files. This assumes that two following arguments are +filenames. The files are searched for pairwise matches between +entries, with two entries considered to match if any of their names do. +The report printed to standard output lists entries with no matches in +the other file, and entries with more than one match. For entries +with exactly one match it includes a difference report. +.TP 5 +\fB-R\fR\fIsubset\fR +Restrict output to a given subset. This option is for use with archaic +versions of terminfo like those on SVr1, Ultrix, or HP/UX that don't support +the full set of SVR4/XSI Curses terminfo; and outright broken ports like AIX +that have their own extensions incompatible with SVr4/XSI. Available terminfo +subsets are "SVr1", "Ultrix", "HP", and "AIX"; see \fBterminfo\fR(\*n) for +details. You can also choose the subset "BSD" which selects only capabilities +with termcap equivalents recognized by 4.4BSD. +.TP 5 +\fB-T\fR +eliminates size-restrictions on the generated text. +This is mainly useful for testing and analysis, since the compiled +descriptions are limited (e.g., 1023 for termcap, 4096 for terminfo). +.TP 5 +\fB-V\fR +prints out the version of the program in use on standard error and exits. +.TP 5 +\fB-e\fR +Dump the capabilities of the given terminal as a C initializer for a +TERMTYPE structure (the terminal capability structure in the \fB<term.h>\fR). +This option is useful for preparing versions of the curses library hardwired +for a given terminal type. +.TP +\fB-f\fR +Display complex terminfo strings which contain if/then/else/endif expressions +indented for readability. +.TP +\fB-g\fR +Display constant character literals in quoted form +rather than their decimal equivalents. +.TP 5 +\fB-i\fR +Analyze the initialization (\fBis1\fR, \fBis2\fR, \fBis3\fR), and reset +(\fBrs1\fR, \fBrs2\fR, \fBrs3\fR), strings in the entry. For each string, the +code tries to analyze it into actions in terms of the other capabilities in the +entry, certain X3.64/ISO 6429/ECMA-48 capabilities, and certain DEC VT-series +private modes (the set of recognized special sequences has been selected for +completeness over the existing terminfo database). Each report line consists +of the capability name, followed by a colon and space, followed by a printable +expansion of the capability string with sections matching recognized actions +translated into {}-bracketed descriptions.
