NAME

       infotocap - convert a terminfo description into a termcap description

SYNOPSIS

       infotocap [-vn width]  [-V] [-1] [-w width] file ...

DESCRIPTION

       infotocap  looks  in  each  given  text file for terminfo descriptions.  For each terminfo
       description found, an equivalent  termcap  description  is  written  to  standard  output.
       Terminfo use capabilities are translated directly to termcap tc capabilities.

       -v   print out tracing information on standard error as the program runs.

       -V   print out the version of the program in use on standard error and exit.

       -1   cause  the  fields to print out one to a line.  Otherwise, the fields will be printed
            several to a line to a maximum width of 60 characters.

       -w   change the output to width characters.

FILES

       /etc/terminfo       Compiled terminal description database.

NOTES

       This utility is actually a link to tic, running in -C mode.  You can use other tic options
       such as -f and  -x.

PORTABILITY
