# toe 1m

    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.
