NAME
toe - table of (terminfo) entriesSYNOPSIS
toe [-v[n]] [-huUV] file...DESCRIPTION
With no options, toe lists all available terminal types by primary name with descriptions. File arguments specify the directories to be scanned; if no such arguments are given, your default terminfo directory is scanned. If you also specify the -h option, a directory header will be issued as each directory is entered.
There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers:
- -u file
- says to issue a report on dependencies in the given file. This report condenses the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a terminal that has use capabilities, followed by a colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which occur in those use capabilities, followed by a newline
- -U file
- says to issue a report on reverse dependencies in the given file. This report reverses the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a terminal that occurs in use capabilities, followed by a colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which depend on it, followed by a newline.
- -vn
- specifies that (verbose) output be written to standard error trace information showing toe's progress. The optional integer n is a number from 1 to 10, interpreted as for tic(1).
- -V
- reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits.
