toe(1m) toe(1m)
toe - table of (terminfo) entries
toe [-v[n]] [-ahsuUV] file...
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:
-a report on all of the terminal databases which
ncurses would search, rather than only the first
one that it finds.
If the -s is also given, toe adds a column to the
report, showing (like conflict(1)) which entries
which belong to a given terminal database. An "*"
marks entries which differ, and "+" marks equiva-
lent entries.
Without the -s option, toe does not attempt to
merge duplicates in its report
-s sort the output by the entry names.
-u file
says to write a report to the standard output,
listing dependencies in the given terminfo/termcap
source file. The report condenses the "use" rela-
tion: 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 write a report to the standard output,
listing reverse dependencies in the given ter-
minfo/termcap source file. The 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 stan-
dard error, showing toe's progress.
The optional parameter n is a number from 1 to 10,
interpreted as for tic(1m). If ncurses is built
without tracing support, the optional parameter is
ignored.
-V reports the version of ncurses which was used in
this program, and exits.
