toe(1M)                                                   toe(1M)



NAME
       toe - table of (terminfo) entries

SYNOPSIS
       toe [-v[n]] [-ahuUV] file...

DESCRIPTION
       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.

       -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).

       -V     reports the version of ncurses which  was  used  in
              this program, and exits.
