DESCRIPTION
The command uses the database to make terminal-dependent capabilities and information available to the shell (see terminfo(4)). The com-
mand outputs a string if the attribute (capname) is of type string, or an integer if the attribute is of type integer. If the attribute is
of type boolean, simply sets the exit code for TRUE, for FALSE), and produces no output.
Command-line Arguments
The command recognizes the following command-line arguments:
Indicates the type of terminal.
Normally this flag is unnecessary because the default is taken from the environment variable
capname Indicates the attribute from the database. See terminfo(4). In addition, the following capnames are supported:
Echo the clear-screen sequence for the current terminal.
Echo the initialize sequence for the current terminal.
Echo the sequence that will reset the current terminal.
