SYNOPSIS
infotocap [-vn width] [-V] [-1] [-w width] file ...
DESCRIPTION

directly to termcap tc capabilities.
-v print out tracing information on standard error as the program
runs.
-V print out the version of the program in use on standard error and
exit.

fields will be printed several to a line to a maximum width of 60
characters.
-w change the output to width characters.
FILES
/usr/local/share/terminfo

This utility is actually a link to tic, running in -C mode. You can
use other tic options such as -f and -x.
PORTABILITY

application.
SEE ALSO
