NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       toe [-v[n]] [-ahuUV] file...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       With no options, toe lists all available terminal types by primary name
13       with descriptions.   File  arguments  specify  the  directories  to  be
14       scanned;  if  no such arguments are given, your default terminfo direc‐
15       tory is scanned.  If you also specify the -h option, a directory header
16       will be issued as each directory is entered.
17
18       There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers:
19
20       -a     report  on  all  of  the  terminal databases which ncurses would
21              search, rather than only the first one that it finds.
22
23       -u file
24              says to write a report to the standard output, listing dependen‐
25              cies in the given terminfo/termcap source file.  The report con‐
26              denses the `use' relation: each line  consists  of  the  primary
27              name  of  a  terminal  that  has use capabilities, followed by a
28              colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary names of all
29              terminals  which  occur in those use capabilities, followed by a
30              newline
31
32       -U file
33              says to write a report to the standard output,  listing  reverse
34              dependencies  in  the  given  terminfo/termcap source file.  The
35              report reverses the `use' relation: each line  consists  of  the
36              primary name of a terminal that occurs in use capabilities, fol‐
37              lowed by a colon, followed by the  whitespace-separated  primary
38              names  of  all  terminals which depend on it, followed by a new‐
39              line.
40
41       -vn    specifies that (verbose) output be written  to  standard  error,
42              showing  toe's  progress.   The optional parameter n is a number
43              from 1 to 10, interpreted as for tic(1M).
44
45       -V     reports the version of ncurses which was used in  this  program,
46              and exits.
