ncurses 库 可能有用酒用 没用就算了 我觉得还可以用

Dump the capabilities of the given terminal as tables, needed in
the C initializer for a
TERMTYPE structure (the terminal capability structure in the \fB<term.h>\fR).
This option is useful for preparing versions of the curses library hardwired
for a given terminal type.
The tables are all declared static, and are named according to the type
and the name of the corresponding terminal entry.
.sp
Before ncurses 5.0, the split between the \fB-e\fP and \fB-E\fP
options was not needed; but support for extended names required making
the arrays of terminal capabilities separate from the TERMTYPE structure.
.TP 5
\fB-e\fR
Dump the capabilities of the given terminal as a C initializer for a
TERMTYPE structure (the terminal capability structure in the \fB<term.h>\fR).
This option is useful for preparing versions of the curses library hardwired
for a given terminal type.
.TP 5
\fB-F\fR
compare terminfo files.  This assumes that two following arguments are
filenames.  The files are searched for pairwise matches between
entries, with two entries considered to match if any of their names do.
The report printed to standard output lists entries with no matches in
the other file, and entries with more than one match.  For entries
with exactly one match it includes a difference report.  Normally,
to reduce the volume of the report, use references are
not resolved before looking for differences, but resolution can be forced
by also specifying \fB-r\fR.
.TP 5
\fB-f\fR
Display complex terminfo strings which contain if/then/else/endif expressions
indented for readability.
.TP 5
\fB-G\fR
Display constant literals in decimal form
rather than their character equivalents.
.TP 5
\fB-g\fR
Display constant character literals in quoted form
rather than their decimal equivalents.
.TP 5
\fB-i\fR
Analyze the initialization (\fBis1\fR, \fBis2\fR, \fBis3\fR), and reset
(\fBrs1\fR, \fBrs2\fR, \fBrs3\fR), strings in the entry.  For each string, the
code tries to analyze it into actions in terms of the other capabilities in the
entry, certain X3.64/ISO 6429/ECMA-48 capabilities, and certain DEC VT-series
private modes (the set of recognized special sequences has been selected for
completeness over the existing terminfo database).  Each report line consists
of the capability name, followed by a colon and space, followed by a printable
expansion of the capability string with sections matching recognized actions
translated into {}-bracketed descriptions.  Here is a list of the DEC/ANSI
special sequences recognized:

.TS

.sp
It also recognizes a SGR action corresponding to ANSI/ISO 6429/ECMA Set
Graphics Rendition, with the values NORMAL, BOLD, UNDERLINE, BLINK, and
REVERSE.  All but NORMAL may be prefixed with `+' (turn on) or `-' (turn off).

An SGR0 designates an empty highlight sequence (equivalent to {SGR:NORMAL}).
.TP 5
\fB-l\fR
Set output format to terminfo.
.TP 5
\fB-p\fR
Ignore padding specifications when comparing strings.
.TP 5
\fB-q\fR
Make the comparison listing shorter by omitting subheadings, and using
"-" for absent capabilities, "@" for canceled rather than "NULL".
.TP 5
\fB-R\fR\fIsubset\fR
Restrict output to a given subset.  This option is for use with archaic
versions of terminfo like those on SVr1, Ultrix, or HP/UX that do not support
the full set of SVR4/XSI Curses terminfo; and variants such as AIX
that have their own extensions incompatible with SVr4/XSI.  Available terminfo
subsets are "SVr1", "Ultrix", "HP", and "AIX"; see \fBterminfo\fR(\*n) for
details.  You can also choose the subset "BSD" which selects only capabilities
with termcap equivalents recognized by 4.4BSD.
.TP
\fB-s \fR\fI[d|i|l|c]\fR
The \fB-s\fR option sorts the fields within each type according to the argument
below:
.br
.RS 5
.TP 5
\fBd\fR
leave fields in the order that they are stored in the \fIterminfo\fR database.
.TP 5
\fBi\fR
sort by \fIterminfo\fR name.
.TP 5
\fBl\fR
sort by the long C variable name.
.TP 5
\fBc\fR
sort by the \fItermcap\fR name.
.RE
.IP
If the \fB-s\fR option is not given, the fields printed out will be
sorted alphabetically by the \fBterminfo\fR name within each type,
except in the case of the \fB-C\fR or the \fB-L\fR options, which cause the
sorting to be done by the \fBtermcap\fR name or the long C variable
name, respectively.
.TP 5
\fB-T\fR
eliminates size-restrictions on the generated text.
This is mainly useful for testing and analysis, since the compiled
descriptions are limited (e.g., 1023 for termcap, 4096 for terminfo).
.TP
\fB-t\fR
tells \fBtic\fP to discard commented-out capabilities.
Normally when translating from terminfo to termcap,
untranslatable capabilities are commented-out.
.TP 5
\fB-V\fR
reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits.
.TP 5
\fB-v\fR \fIn\fR
prints out tracing information on standard error as the program runs.
Higher values of n induce greater verbosity.
.TP 5
\fB-w\fR \fIwidth\fR
changes the output to \fIwidth\fR characters.
.TP
\fB-x\fR
print information for user-defined capabilities.
These are extensions to the terminfo repertoire which can be loaded
using the \fB-x\fR option of \fBtic\fP.

options are not supported in SVr4 curses.

The \fB-r\fR option's notion of `termcap' capabilities is System V Release 4's.
Actual BSD curses versions will have a more restricted set.  To see only the
4.4BSD set, use \fB-r\fR \fB-RBSD\fR.
.SH BUGS
The \fB-F\fR option of \fBinfocmp\fR(1M) should be a \fBtoe\fR(1M) mode.
