NAME
infocmp — compare or print compiled terminfo descriptionsSYNOPSIS
| infocmp | [-1acnqux] [-A database] [-B database] [-w cols] [term ...] |
DESCRIPTION
The infocmp reconstructs the first available terminfo(5) definition found for term and prints the result in a terminfo(5) format. Capability types are grouped together and new types start new lines, first flags, then numbers, then strings. Capabilities are sorted by their name. If a second term is given then the capabilities are compared against each other.- -1
- Print one capability per line.
- -A database
- Use this database to load the first terminal definition.
- -B database
- Use this database to load subsequent terminal definitions.
- -a
- Include commented out capabilities. This only works if the database was compiled with the -a flag passed to tic(1). This also sets the -x flag as infocmp retains commented out capabilities as non standard.
- -c
- Print capabilities common to each definition.
- -n
- Print capabilities that do not exist in either definition.
- -q
- Make the comparison listing shorter by omitting subheadings and using - for absent capabilities, @ for canceled capabilities rather than NULL.
- -u
- Build a new terminal description for the first terminal description, using subsequent terminal descriptions. This also sets the -a flag.
- -w cols
- Limit the width to cols.
- -x
- Include non-standard capabilities. More -x only handles non-standard capabilities. This only works if the database was compiled with the -x flag passed to tic(1).
ENVIRONMENT
- COLUMNS
- Override columns returned by the output terminal. -w cols supersedes this.
- TERM
- infocmp uses the contents of the TERM environment variable if no terminal name is given on the command line.
