35# This is the master termcap/terminfo capability table.
36#
37# This table is used to generate initializers for tables that drive tic,
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -040038# infocmp, and the library compilation code used to support the termcap
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +053039# compatibility hack. It is also used to generate the tabular portion of the
40# terminfo(5) man page; lines beginning with `#%' are passed through to become
41# the terminfo table.
42#
43# This file has three major sections; a standard-capabilities table, two
44# extension-capability tables, and a section of aliases declarations.
45# The first two have the same format, as follows:
46#
47# FILE FORMAT
48#
49# Column 1: terminfo variable name
50# Column 2: terminfo capability name
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -040051# Column 3: capability type (Boolean, numeric, or string)
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +053052# Column 4: termcap capability name
53# Column 5: KEY_xxx name, if any, `-' otherwise
54# Column 6: value for KEY_xxx name, if any, `-' otherwise
55# Column 7: Lead with `Y' if capability should be emitted in termcap
56# translations, `-' otherwise
57# Column 8: capability description
58#
59# The codes following [Y-] in column 7 describe the versions of termcap which
60# use the given capability. This information is not used by the curses library
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -040061# proper; rather, it is there to help the terminfo maintainer avoid emitting
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +053062# termcap entry translations that are more than 1023 bytes long (and tank a
63# lot of old termcap-using programs). The codes read as follows:
64# B = mentioned in the BSD man page for 4.4BSD curses
65# C = used by the 4.4BSD curses library
66# G = mentioned in the documentation for GNU termcap
67# E = used by GNU Emacs
68# K = remove this terminfo capability when translating to standard format
69# The important codes are C and E. A cap with C or E should be preserved in
70# translation if possible. The problem is that preserving all such caps may
71# lead to some termcap translations being too long. The termcap maintainer
72# has a bit of a juggling act to do...potential problem cases are marked with
73# an asterisk (*).
74#
75# The aliases section has the following format:
76#
77# Column 1: either `capalias' or `infoalias'
78# Column 2: name to be aliased
79# Column 3: what name it should translate to. The name IGNORE means it
80# should be discarded with a warning message.
81# Column 4: name of the extension set (used for compiler warning messages)
82# Column 5: capability description (usually an associated terminfo variable)
83#
84# HANDLING TERMCAP AND TERMINFO EXTENSIONS
85#
86# There are basically five different ways to handle termcap and terminfo
87# extensions:
88#
89# 1. Don't list the capname here, or list it but comment it out (the latter
90# is preferable; someone might want to handle it in the future). If you do
91# this, the capability will be treated as unknown and raise a warning from
92# the compiler.
93#
94# 2. Alias it. This is appropriate if the capability has the same meaning
95# as an already-supported one. The compiler will handle aliasing, emitting
96# an appropriate informational message whenever an alias fires.
97#
98# 3. List it in the standard table. You almost certainly do *not* want
99# to do this -- the capabilities in that one, and their order, have been
100# carefully chosen to be SVr4-binary-compatible when they're written out
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400101# as a terminfo object, and breaking this would be bad. It is up to the ncurses
102# library what to do with the terminfo data after it is read in.
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530103#
104# 4. List it in the aliases table with an IGNORE target field. If you
105# do this, the capability will be ignored on input (though the user will
106# get a warning message about it).
107#
108# 5. List it in the extensions table. If you do this, the compiler will
109# silently accept the capability, but the curses library proper will never
110# see it (because it won't be written out as part of the terminfo object
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400111# format). It is up to you what you have the compiler do with it.
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530112#
113# There are two opposite reasons to choose option 5. One is when you want
114# to eat the capability silently and discard it when doing translations
115# to terminfo with tic -I. Some very old obsolete BSD caps like :kn: are
116# in this class. Nothing will ever use them again.
117#
118# More usually, you want the compiler to try to deduce something from the
119# capability value that it can use to translate it into your output format.
120# You'll need to write custom code, probably in postprocess_termcap() or
121# postprocess_terminfo(), to handle the translation.
122#
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400123# CONTROLLING ENTRY LENGTH
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530124#
125# Notes on specific elisions made to fit translations within 1023 bytes:
126#
127# Machines with IBM PC-like keyboards want to be able to define the following
128# keys: key_npage, key_ppage, key_home, key_ll (which is used for in termcap-
129# only environments for End or Home-Down), key_dc, and key_ic. This is also
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400130# the set of keys the `joe' editor will be upset if it can't see. So don't
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530131# trim those out of the set to be translated to termcap, or various users of
132# the termcap file will become irate.
133#
134# It might look tempting to leave those long init strings out of translations.
135# We can't do it (yet); 4.4BSD tput and tset use them.
136#
137# We retain the sgr capability in translation in spite of the fact that neither
138# 4.4BSD nor GNU Emacs uses it, because (a) some entry naming distinctions are
139# hard to understand without it, and (b) the entries in which it is long tend
140# to be older types that don't use up a lot of string space on function keys.
141# The tic(1) translation code will complain and elide it if it makes a critical
142# difference (there is special code in tic to recognize this situation).
143#
144# Yes, BSD tset(1) uses hpa. We elide hpa/vpa anyway because the motion
145# optimizer in BSD curses didn't use them. This omission seems to be the
146# single most effective one, it shortened the resolved length of all thirteen
147# problem entries in the 9.9.0 version of the terminfo master below critical.
148#
149# It would be nice to keep f11 and f12 for Emacs use, but a couple of termcap
150# translations go back over critical if we do this. As 4.4BSD curses fades
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400151# into history and GNU termcap's application base shrinks towards being GNU
Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530152# Emacs only, we'll probably elide out some BSD-only capabilities in order
153# to buy space for non-essentials Emacs is still using. Capabilities high
154# on that hit list: rc, sc, uc.
155#
micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400156# FORMATTING THE TABLES
157#
158# We manually specify a (minimum) column width for the capability name
159# and terminfo code columns in the tables to achieve a consistent
160# arrangement; as used here, tbl(1) cannot know the width required by
161# one table's data while formatting another's.
162#
163# The longest capability names (C variables) are
164# "enter_near_letter_quality" and "bit_image_carriage_return" (tied at
165# 25n), and the longest terminfo code is "setcolor" (8n).
166#
167# The tables are a tight fit on traditional man(7) implementations that
168# use a line length of 65n, and the "Description" column has little room
169# within which the formatter can make breaking or adjustment decisions.
170# Words like "micro_..._address" and "parm_..._micro" don't break.
171# Reducing the inter-column gaps to 2 ens gives them enough room. --GBR

840#
841# TERMCAP EXTENSION CAPABILITIES
842#
843# The capabilities below are either obsolete or extensions on certain systems.
844# They are not used by SVR4 terminfo. Some are used by captoinfo to translate
845# termcap sources; the rest are listed for completeness, and in case somebody
846# cares about them enough to hack in code that will translate them into
847# terminfo capabilities.
848#
849# The first part of the list is from Ross Ridge's `mytinfo' package
850# (comp.sources.unix, volume 26); the variable names and terminfo names (as
851# well as the termcap codes) match his list.
852#
853# This group of codes is not marked obsolete in 4.4BSD, but have no direct
854# terminfo equivalents. The rs capability is specially translated to terminfo
855# r2, and vice versa, if an entry does not already have an r2. Similarly,
856# i2 is translated to r3 if there is no r3 (because SV terminfo maps is to i2).
857# The ug capability is thrown away, but assumed to be whatever sg is if the
858# latter is nonzero and we're dumping in termcap format.
859#
860termcap_init2 OTi2 str i2 - - YB--- secondary initialization string
861termcap_reset OTrs str rs - - YB-G- terminal reset string
862magic_cookie_glitch_ul OTug num ug - - YBCGE number of blanks left by ul
863#
864# Obsolete termcap capabilities. Some are used for termcap translation. The
865# code uses the 'OT' prefix we put on obsolete capabilities to suppress
866# printing them in terminfo source dumps of compiled entries.
867#
868backspaces_with_bs OTbs bool bs - - YBCGE uses ^H to move left
869crt_no_scrolling OTns bool ns - - YBCG- crt cannot scroll
870no_correctly_working_cr OTnc bool nc - - YBCG- no way to go to start of line
871carriage_return_delay OTdC num dC - - YB-G- pad needed for CR
872new_line_delay OTdN num dN - - YB-G- pad needed for LF
873linefeed_if_not_lf OTnl str nl - - YBCGE use to move down
874backspace_if_not_bs OTbc str bc - - YBCGE move left, if not ^H
875#
876# GNU termcap library extensions. The GNU termcap file distributed with
877# Emacs no longer uses these, but MT showed up in pre-9.0 versions of the
878# BSD termcap file. The name clash with terminfo MT is resolved by type

Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530888#
889# The following comments describe capnames so ancient that I believe no
890# software uses them any longer. Some of these have to go because they
891# clash with terminfo names in ways that cannot be resolved by type
892# information.
893#
894# These mytinfo codes are not used in the 4.4BSD curses code. They are
895# marked obsolete in the 4.4BSD manual pages.
896#
897# There is one conflict with terminfo; ma is in both. This conflict is
898# resolved by type information.
899#
900# The `ko' capability is translated by special code. It should contain a
901# comma-separated list of capabilities for which there are corresponding keys.
902# The `kn' code is accepted but ignored.

micky3879b9f5e72025-07-08 18:04:53 -0400904# The `ma' capability was a 4.0BSD feature used by vi version 2.
905# It consists of pairs of characters corresponding to kl, kr, ku, kd, and kh.
906# Besides being obsolete, that interpretation conflicts with max_attributes.

908# Here is a description of memory_lock_above and memory_unlock:
909# "You can 'freeze' data on the screen by turning on Memory Lock in a line of
910# text. All lines above the cursor's current line become locked in place on
911# the screen. Then enter data normally. When the screen fills up, any
912# further data entered forces the first line of unfrozen line text to scroll
913# under the frozen data. Lines scrolled off the screen are inserted into
914# memory immediately preceding the first frozen line." (from the HP 700/96
