.SH NAME
\fB@INFOTOCAP@\fR - convert a \fIterminfo\fR description into a \fItermcap\fR description
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fB@INFOTOCAP@\fR [\fB-v\fR\fIn\fR \fIwidth\fR]  [\fB-V\fR] [\fB-1\fR] [\fB-w\fR \fIwidth\fR] \fIfile\fR . . .
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fB@INFOTOCAP@\fR looks in \fIfile\fR for \fBterminfo\fR descriptions.  For each
one found, an equivalent \fBtermcap\fR description is written to standard
output.  Terminfo \fBuse\fR capabilities are translated directly to termcap
\fBtc\fR capabilities.
.TP 5
\fB-v\fR
print out tracing information on standard error as the program runs.
.TP 5
\fB-V\fR
print out the version of the program in use on standard error and exit.
.TP 5
\fB-1\fR
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.
.TP 5
\fB-w\fR
change the output to \fIwidth\fR characters.
.SH FILES
.TP 20
\*d
Compiled terminal description database.
.SH NOTES
This utility is actually a link to \fI@TIC@\fR, running in \fI-C\fR mode.
You can use other \fI@TIC@\fR options such as \fB-f\fR and  \fB-x\fR.
