Q T E R M - Q U E R Y T E R M I N A L
Revision 1.11
Qterm is a program that queries terminals to find out what kind
of terminal is responding. It is useful to automagically define your
terminal type. It prints the name of the terminal (compatible, hopefully,
with a termcap/terminfo name) such as "vt100" to standard output.
See the manual for details.
Qterm was written under 4.2BSD and will probably run without
modification on other Berkeley Unix systems. It will require some
minor tweaking to work under USG (System III & V.?, V?). Most of this
should be only in setting/unsetting cbreak and echo modes. If you
do port it to Sys V, please send me a copy and I'll incorporate it into
my version.
If you add any new terminal's to the master table, please send
me the output of a "qterm -s" and I'll add it to my table.
