+.Nm remote
+.Nd remote host description file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The systems known by
+.Xr tip 1
+and their attributes are stored in an
+.Tn ASCII
+file which
+is structured somewhat like the
+.Xr termcap 5
+file. Each line in the file provides a description for a single
+.Xr system .
+Fields are separated by a colon (``:'').
+Lines ending in a \e character with an immediately following newline are
+continued on the next line.
+.Pp
+The first entry is the name(s) of the host system. If there is more
+than one name for a system, the names are separated by vertical bars.
+After the name of the system comes the fields of the description. A
+field name followed by an `=' sign indicates a string value follows. A field
+name followed by a `#' sign indicates a following numeric value.
+.Pp
+Entries named ``tip*'' and ``cu*''
+are used as default entries by
+.Xr tip ,
+and the
+.Xr cu
+interface to
+.Xr tip ,
+as follows. When
+.Xr tip
+is invoked with only a phone number, it looks for an entry
+of the form ``tip300'', where 300 is the baud rate with
+which the connection is to be made. When the
+.Xr cu
+interface is used, entries of the form ``cu300'' are used.
+.Sh CAPABILITIES
+Capabilities are either strings (str), numbers (num), or boolean
+flags (bool). A string capability is specified by
+.Em capability Ns Ar = Ns Em value ;
+for example, ``dv=/dev/harris''. A numeric capability is specified by
+.Em capability Ns Ar # Ns Em value ;
+for example, ``xa#99''. A boolean capability is specified by simply listing
+the capability.
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Cm \&at
+(str)
+Auto call unit type.
+.It Cm \&br
+(num)
+The baud rate used in establishing
+a connection to the remote host.
+This is a decimal number.
+The default baud rate is 300 baud.
+.It Cm \&cm
+(str)
+An initial connection message to be sent
+to the remote host. For example, if a
+host is reached through port selector, this
+might be set to the appropriate sequence
+required to switch to the host.
+.It Cm \&cu
+(str)
+Call unit if making a phone call.
+Default is the same as the `dv' field.
+.It Cm \&di
+(str)
+Disconnect message sent to the host when a
+disconnect is requested by the user.
+.It Cm \&du
+(bool)
+This host is on a dial-up line.
+.It Cm \&dv
+(str)
+.Tn UNIX
+device(s) to open to establish a connection.
+If this file refers to a terminal line,
+.Xr tip 1
+attempts to perform an exclusive open on the device to insure only
+one user at a time has access to the port.
+.It Cm \&el
+(str)
+Characters marking an end-of-line.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+`~' escapes are only
+recognized by
+.Xr tip
+after one of the characters in `el',
+or after a carriage-return.
+.It Cm \&fs
+(str)
+Frame size for transfers.
+The default frame size is equal to
+.Dv BUFSIZ .
+.It Cm \&hd
+(bool)
+The host uses half-duplex communication, local
+echo should be performed.
+.It Cm \&ie
+(str)
+Input end-of-file marks.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+.It Cm \&oe
+(str)
+Output end-of-file string.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+When
+.Xr tip
+is transferring a file, this
+string is sent at end-of-file.
+.It Cm \&pa
+(str)
+The type of parity to use when sending data
+to the host. This may be one of ``even'',
+``odd'', ``none'', ``zero'' (always set bit 8 to zero),
+``one'' (always set bit 8 to 1). The default
+is even parity.
+.It Cm \&pn
+(str)
+Telephone number(s) for this host.
+If the telephone number field contains
+an @ sign,
+.Xr tip
+searches the file
+.Pa /etc/phones
+file for a list of telephone numbers;
+(See
+.Xr phones 5 . )
+.It Cm \&tc
+(str)
+Indicates that the list of capabilities is continued
+in the named description. This is used
+primarily to share common capability information.
+.El

+Here is a short example showing the use of the capability continuation
