the utility to display this file. If no such
variable is found in the environment, then
Multi_View uses the “pg” utility.

use a terminal description that is different
from the one specified by the TERM variable
in the user environment.
-f This option lets the user instruct Multi_View
to read the terminal descriptions from a
different file than the default description file.
The default description file is “ usr/bin/
msfile ”.
