Syntax
tic.hpbin.sys[-v[n]]-c file
Operation
Use the tic utility to compile source terminfo descriptions.
tic installs the compiled entry under the /usr/lib/terminfo directory hierarchy, unless you set the
TERMINFO environment variable, in which case it places results in the directory it points to instead. Entries
are stored in directories that match the first character of their name. The entry for the VT-100 terminal, for
example, is stored in /usr/lib/terminfo/v/vt100.
