| <STRONG>infotocap</STRONG> translates terminal descriptions. It looks in each given |
| text <EM>file</EM> for <EM>terminfo</EM> entries and, For each one found, it writes an |
| analogous <EM>termcap</EM> description to the standard output stream. <EM>terminfo</EM> |
| "<STRONG>use</STRONG>" capabilities translate to <EM>termcap</EM> <STRONG>tc</STRONG> capabilities. Because |
| <EM>termcap</EM> is a less expressive format than <EM>terminfo</EM>, some capabilities |
| cannot be translated. |
| |
| This utility is implemented as a link to <STRONG><A HREF="tic.1m.html">tic(1m)</A></STRONG>, with the latter's <STRONG>-C</STRONG> |
| option implied. You can use other <STRONG>tic</STRONG> options such as <STRONG>-1</STRONG>, <STRONG>-f</STRONG>, <STRONG>-v</STRONG>, <STRONG>-w</STRONG>, |
| and <STRONG>-x</STRONG>. The <STRONG>-V</STRONG> option reports the version of <EM>ncurses</EM> associated with |
| this program and exits with a successful status. |
