.TH TERM 5 "Jul 3, 1990"
.SH NAME
term \- conventional names for terminals
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
Terminal names are maintained as part of the shell environment in the
environment variable \fB\fR\fBTERM\fR\fB\&. \fR See \fBsh\fR(1),
\fBprofile\fR(4), and \fBenviron\fR(5). These names are used by certain
commands (for example, \fBtabs\fR, \fBtput\fR, and \fBvi\fR) and certain
functions (for example, see \fBcurses\fR(3CURSES)).
.sp
.LP
Files under \fB/usr/share/lib/terminfo\fR are used to name terminals and
describe their capabilities. These files are in the format described in
\fBterminfo\fR(4). Entries in \fBterminfo\fR source files consist of a number
of comma-separated fields. To print a description of a terminal  \fIterm\fR,
use the command  \fBinfocmp\fR \fB-I\fR \fIterm\fR. See \fBinfocmp\fR(1M).
White space after each comma is ignored. The first line of each terminal
description in the \fBterminfo\fR database gives the names by which
\fBterminfo\fR knows the terminal, separated by bar (\fB|\fR) characters. The
first name given is the most common abbreviation for the terminal (this is the
one to use to set the environment variable \fBTERMINFO\fR in
\fB$HOME/.profile\fR; see \fBprofile\fR(4)), the last name given should be a
long name fully identifying the terminal, and all others are understood as
synonyms for the terminal name. All names but the last should contain no blanks
and must be unique in the first 14 characters; the last name may contain blanks
for readability.
.sp
.LP
Terminal names (except for the last, verbose entry) should be chosen using the
following conventions. The particular piece of hardware making up the terminal
should have a root name chosen, for example, for the AT&T 4425 terminal,
\fBatt4425\fR. This name should not contain hyphens, except that synonyms may
be chosen that do not conflict with other names. Up to 8 characters, chosen
from the set \fBa\fR through \fBz\fR and \fB0\fR through \fB9\fR, make up a
basic terminal name. Names should generally be based on original vendors rather
than local distributors. A terminal acquired from one vendor should not have
more than one distinct basic name. Terminal sub-models, operational modes that
the hardware can be in, or user preferences should be indicated by appending a
hyphen and an indicator of the mode. Thus, an AT&T 4425 terminal in 132 column
mode is \fBatt4425\(miw\fR. The following suffixes should be used where
possible:

\(minam Without automatic margins       vt100\(minam
\(mi\fIn\fR     Number of lines on the screen   aaa\(mi60

\(mirv  Reverse video   att4415\(mirv

.LP
To avoid conflicts with the naming conventions used in describing the different
modes of a terminal (for example, \fB-w\fR), it is recommended that a
terminal's root name not contain hyphens. Further, it is good practice to make
all terminal names used in the  \fBterminfo\fR(4) database unique. Terminal
entries that are present only for inclusion in other entries via the \fBuse=\fR
facilities should have a '\fB+\fR' in their name, as in  \fB4415+nl\fR.

Commands whose behavior depends on the type of terminal should accept arguments
of the form \fB-T\fR\fIterm\fR where \fIterm\fR is one of the names given
above; if no such argument is present, such commands should obtain the terminal
type from the environment variable \fBTERM\fR, which, in turn, should contain
\fIterm\fR.
