G'day folks.

Can anyone tell me where I can find the usual termcap/terminfo
manipulation programs?

tic, untic, infocmp. captoinfo, tset and so on.

I can't seem to find them anywhere, and they certainly aren't in the
Slackware 2.2 or 2.3 releases.

Many thanks.

Cheers
Tony

: They're in Debian {as with most things}.  And probably a lot of other

: Also, ncurses _probably_ includes them.

I have an older Slackware (August '94).  tic/untic are in /usr/lib/terminfo.
tset is in /usr/bin.  I don't think infocmp and captoinfo are on
the system.

Hope this helps.
