The following table describes all terminal capabilities that are
recognized by screen and are not in the termcap(5) manual. You
can place these capabilities in your termcap entries (in
`/etc/termcap') or use them with the commands `termcap',
`terminfo' and `termcapinfo' in your screenrc files. It is often
not possible to place these capabilities in the terminfo
database.
LP (bool)
Terminal has VT100 style margins (`magic margins'). Note
that this capability is obsolete because screen uses the
standard 'xn' instead.
Z0 (str)
Change width to 132 columns.
Z1 (str)
Change width to 80 columns.
WS (str)
Resize display. This capability has the desired width and
height as arguments. SunView(tm) example: '\E[8;%d;%dt'.
NF (bool)
Terminal doesn't need flow control. Send ^S and ^Q direct
to the application. Same as 'flow off'. The opposite of
this capability is 'nx'.
G0 (bool)
Terminal can deal with ISO 2022 font selection sequences.
S0 (str)
Switch charset 'G0' to the specified charset. Default is
'\E(%.'.
E0 (str)
Switch charset 'G0' back to standard charset. Default is
'\E(B'.
C0 (str)
Use the string as a conversion table for font '0'. See the
'ac' capability for more details.
CS (str)
Switch cursor-keys to application mode.
CE (str)
Switch cursor-keys back to normal mode.
AN (bool)
Turn on autonuke. See the 'autonuke' command for more
details.
OL (num)
Set the output buffer limit. See the 'obuflimit' command
for more details.
KJ (str)
Set the encoding of the terminal. See the 'encoding'
command for valid encodings.
AF (str)
Change character foreground color in an ANSI conform way.
This capability will almost always be set to '\E[3%dm'
('\E[3%p1%dm' on terminfo machines).
AB (str)
Same as 'AF', but change background color.
AX (bool)
Does understand ANSI set default fg/bg color (\E[39m /
\E[49m).
XC (str)
Describe a translation of characters to strings depending
on the current font. More details follow in the next
section.
XT (bool)
Terminal understands special xterm sequences (OSC, mouse
tracking).
C8 (bool)
Terminal needs bold to display high-intensity colors (e.g.
Eterm).
TF (bool)
Add missing capabilities to the termcap/info entry. (Set
by default).
