  15.      The command _tttt_iiii_cccc translates a _tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo file from the source format into
  16.      the compiled format.  The results are placed in the directory
  17.      _////_uuuu_ssss_rrrr_////_ssss_hhhh_aaaa_rrrr_eeee_////_llll_iiii_bbbb_////_tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo.  The compiled format is necessary for use with
  18.      the library routines in _cccc_uuuu_rrrr_ssss_eeee_ssss(3X).
  19.  
  20.      _----_vvvv_n     Specifies that (verbose) output be written to standard error
  21.              trace information showing _tttt_iiii_cccc's progress.  The optional integer _n
  22.              is a number from 1 to 10, inclusive, indicating the desired level
  23.              of detail of information.  If _n is omitted, the default level is
  24.              1.  If _n is specified and greater than 1, the level of detail is
  25.              increased.
  26.  
  27.      _----_cccc      Specifies to check only _f_i_l_e for errors.  Errors in _uuuu_ssss_eeee_==== links
  28.              are not detected.
  29.  
  30.      _f_i_l_e    Contains one or more _tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo terminal descriptions in source
  31.              format (see _tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo(4)).  Each description in the file describes
  32.              the capabilities of a particular terminal.  When a _uuuu_ssss_eeee=_e_n_t_r_y-_n_a_m_e
  33.              field is discovered in a terminal entry currently being compiled,
  34.              _tttt_iiii_cccc reads in the binary from _////_uuuu_ssss_rrrr_////_ssss_hhhh_aaaa_rrrr_eeee_////_llll_iiii_bbbb_////_tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo to complete
  35.              the entry.  (Entries created from _f_i_l_e will be used first.  If
  36.              the environment variable _TTTT_EEEE_RRRR_MMMM_IIII_NNNN_FFFF_OOOO is set, that directory is
  37.              searched instead of _////_uuuu_ssss_rrrr_////_ssss_hhhh_aaaa_rrrr_eeee_////_llll_iiii_bbbb_////_tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo.)  _tttt_iiii_cccc duplicates the
  38.              capabilities in _e_n_t_r_y-_n_a_m_e for the current entry, with the
  39.              exception of those capabilities that explicitly are defined in
  40.              the current entry.
  41.  
  42.      If the environment variable _TTTT_EEEE_RRRR_MMMM_IIII_NNNN_FFFF_OOOO is set, the compiled results are
  43.      placed there instead of _////_uuuu_ssss_rrrr_////_ssss_hhhh_aaaa_rrrr_eeee_////_llll_iiii_bbbb_////_tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo.
  44.  
  45.      Total compiled entries cannot exceed 4096 bytes.  The name field cannot
  46.      exceed 128 bytes.  Terminal names exceeding 14 characters are truncated
  47.      to 14 characters and a warning message will be printed.

  50.      _tttt_iiii_cccc can translate a _tttt_eeee_rrrr_mmmm_iiii_nnnn_ffff_oooo(4) file including variables for
  51.      international functionality from the source format to the compiled
  52.      format.
  53.  
  54.      _tttt_iiii_cccc also recognizes the environment variable _TTTT_EEEE_RRRR_MMMM_IIII_NNNN_FFFF_OOOO with a value that
  55.      includes characters from the supplementary code sets as the pathname for
