The qmtic Utility |

The qmtic tool can be used to compile new terminal definitions or to decompile existing ones. Although it is possible to store separate source definitions of each terminal type, QM includes a single master source file, terminfo.src, in the QMSYS directory. To simplify maintenance of a private set of new or modified terminal definitions, the QM installation process will look for a file named terminfo.mods in the QMSYS account directory and, if it exists, will compile it after the standard source.
The format of the qmtic command to compile terminfo data is:
qmtic {options} src...
where
The format of the qmtic command to decompile terminfo data is:
qmtic {options} -d name...
where
Replacing the -d option with -dall will decompile all terminfo entries to produce a new master source file.
The format of the qmtic command to display an index of terminal types is:
qmtic {options} -i
