NAME
captoinfo - convert a termcap description into a terminfo description SYNOPSIS
captoinfo [-1] [-v]... [-V] [-w width] filename... DESCRIPTION
captoinfo looks in filename for termcap descriptions. For each one found, an equivalent terminfo description is written to standard out- put, along with any comments found. A description which is expressed as relative to another description (as specified in the termcap tc = field) is reduced to the minimum superset before being displayed. If no filename is given, then the environment variable TERMCAP is used for the filename or entry. If TERMCAP is a full pathname to a file, only the terminal whose name is specified in the environment variable TERM is extracted from that file. If the environment variable TERMCAP is not set, then the file /usr/share/lib/termcap is read. OPTIONS
-1 Display the fields one to a line. Otherwise, the fields are printed several to a line, with a maximum width of 60 characters. -v Display tracing information on the standard error as the program runs. Specifying additional -v options displays more detailed information. -V Display the version of the program in use on the standard error and then exit. -w width Change the output to width characters. FILES
