The 'tack' program is a diagnostic that is designed to create and
|
|
|
|
|
verify the correctness of terminfo's. This program can be used to
|
|
|
|
|
create new terminal descriptions that are not included in the standard
|
|
|
|
|
release. Although 'tack' is distributed with ncurses, it is not an
|
|
|
|
|
integral part of ncurses. It may be removed from the release without
|
|
|
|
|
limiting the usefulness of ncurses on those terminals described in the
|
|
|
|
|
terminfo data base. The best way to remove 'tack' from the build is
|
|
|
|
|
to delete or rename the 'tack' directory before running the configure
|
|
|
|
|
script.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Unlike most of ncurses the 'tack' program is covered under the GNU
|
|
|
|
|
Public License.
