Normally this option is -unnecessary, because the default is taken from the environment -variable \fBTERM\fR. If \fB-T\fR is specified, then the shell -variables \fBLINES\fR and \fBCOLUMNS\fR will be ignored,and the -operating system will not be queried for the actual screen size. -.TP -\fIcapname\fR -indicates the capability from the \fBterminfo\fR database. When -\fBtermcap\fR support is compiled in, the \fBtermcap\fR name for -the capability is also accepted. -.TP -\fIparms\fR -If the capability is a string that takes parameters, the arguments -\fIparms\fR will be instantiated into the string. -.IP -Most parameters are numbers. -Only a few terminfo capabilities require string parameters; -\fB@TPUT@\fR uses a table to decide which to pass as strings. -Normally \fB@TPUT@\fR uses \fBtparm\fR (3X) to perform the substitution. -If no parameters are given for the capability, -\fB@TPUT@\fR writes the string without performing the substitution. -.TP -\fB-S\fR -allows more than one capability per invocation of \fB@TPUT@\fR. The -capabilities must be passed to \fB@TPUT@\fR from the standard input -instead of from the command line (see example). -Only one \fIcapname\fR is allowed per line. -The \fB-S\fR option changes the -meaning of the \fB0\fR and \fB1\fR boolean and string exit codes (see the -EXIT CODES section). -.IP -Again, \fB@TPUT@\fR uses a table and the presence of parameters in its input -to decide whether to use \fBtparm\fR (3X), -and how to interpret the parameters. -.TP -\fB-V\fR -reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits. -.TP -\fBinit\fR -If the \fBterminfo\fR database is present and an entry for the user's -terminal exists (see \fB-T\fR\fItype\fR, above), the following will -occur: -.RS -.TP -(1) -if present, the terminal's initialization strings will be -output as detailed in the \fBterminfo\fR(5) section on -.IR "Tabs and Initialization" , -.TP -(2) -any delays (e.g., newline) specified in the entry will -be set in the tty driver, -.TP -(3) -tabs expansion will be turned on or off according to -the specification in the entry, and -.TP -(4) -if tabs are not expanded, -standard tabs will be set (every 8 spaces). -.RE -.IP -If an entry does not -contain the information needed for any of the four above activities, -that activity will silently be skipped. -.TP -\fBreset\fR -Instead of putting out initialization strings, the terminal's -reset strings will be output if present (\fBrs1\fR, \fBrs2\fR, \fBrs3\fR, \fBrf\fR). -If the reset strings are not present, but initialization -strings are, the initialization strings will be output. -Otherwise, \fBreset\fR acts identically to \fBinit\fR. -.TP -\fBlongname\fR -If the \fBterminfo\fR database is present and an entry for the -user's terminal exists (see \fB-T\fR\fItype\fR above), then the long name -of the terminal will be put out. The long name is the last -name in the first line of the terminal's description in the -\fBterminfo\fR database [see \fBterm\fR(5)]. -.PP -If \fB@TPUT@\fR is invoked by a link named \fBreset\fR, this has the -same effect as \fB@TPUT@ reset\fR. -See \fBtset\fR for comparison, which has similar behavior. -.SH EXAMPLES -.TP 5 -\fB@TPUT@ init\fR -Initialize the terminal according to the type of -terminal in the environmental variable \fBTERM\fR.
