33.SH NAME
34\fBtoe\fR - table of (terminfo) entries
35.SH SYNOPSIS
36\fBtoe\fR [\fB-v\fR[\fIn\fR]] [\fB-huUV\fR] \fIfile...\fR
37.br
38.SH DESCRIPTION
39.PP
40With no options, \fBtoe\fR lists all available terminal types by primary name
41with descriptions. File arguments specify the directories to be scanned; if no
42such arguments are given, your default terminfo directory is scanned. If you
43also specify the \fB-h\fR option, a directory header will be issued as each
44directory is entered.
45.PP
46There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers:
47.TP
48\fB-u\fR \fIfile\fR
49says to issue a report on dependencies in the given file. This report condenses
50the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a terminal that
51has use capabilities, followed by a colon, followed by the
52whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which occur in those use
53capabilities, followed by a newline
54.TP
55\fB-U\fR \fIfile\fR
56says to issue a report on reverse dependencies in the given file. This report
57reverses the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a
58terminal that occurs in use capabilities, followed by a colon, followed by the
59whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which depend on it,
60followed by a newline.
61.TP
62\fB-v\fR\fIn\fR
63specifies that (verbose) output be written to standard error trace
64information showing \fBtoe\fR's progress. The optional integer
65\fIn\fR is a number from 1 to 10, interpreted as for \fBtic\fR(1).
66.TP 5
67\fB-V\fR
68reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits.
