 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      untic - terminfo de-compiler

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      untic [term] [-f file]

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      untic translates a terminfo file from the compiled format into the
      source format.  If the environment variable TERMINFO is set to a path
      name, untic checks for a compiled terminfo description of the terminal
      under the path specified by TERMINFO before checking
      /usr/share/lib/terminfo.  Otherwise, only /usr/share/lib/terminfo is
      checked.

      Normally untic uses the terminal type obtained from the TERM
      environment variable.  With the term (terminal type) argument,
      however, the user can specify the terminal type used.

      With the file argument the user can specify the file used for
      translation.  This option bypasses the use of the TERM and TERMINFO
      environment variables.

      untic sends the de-compiled terminfo description result to standard
      output.
