NTERM(S) NTERM(S)
NAME
nterm - terminal driving tables for nroff
DESCRIPTION
nroff(1) uses driving tables to customize its output for various types of
output devices, such as printing terminals, special word-processing terminals
(such as Diablo, Qume, or NEC Spinwriter mechanisms), or special
output filter programs. These driving tables are written as ASCII
files, and are installed in /usr/Ub/nterm/tab. name, where name is the
name for that terminal type as given in term(S).
The first line of a driving table should contain the name of the terminal:
simply a string with no embedded white space. "White space" means
any combination of spaces, tabs and new-lines. The next part of the
driver table is structured as follows:
bset [integer] (not supported in all versions of nrotT)
breset [integer] (not supported in all versions of nrotT)
Hor [integer]
Vert [integer]
Newline [integer]
Char [integer]
Em [integer]
Halfline [integer]
Adj [integer]
twinit [character string]
twrest [character string]
twnl [character string]
hlr [character string]
hlf [character string]
fir [character string]
bdon [character string]
bdoff [character string]
iton [character string]
itoff [character string]
ploton [character string]
plotoff [character string]
up [character string]
down [character string]
right [character string]
left [character string]
The meanings of these fields are as follows:
bset bits to set in the c _ ofiag field of the termio structure before
output
breset bits to reset in the c _ ofiag field of the termio structure
before output
Hor horizontal resolution in units of 11240 of an inch.
Vert vertical resolution in units of 11240 of an inch.
Newline space moved by a newline (linefeed) character in units of
11240 of an inch.
Char quantum of character sizes, in units of ·1!240 of an inch.
(i.e., a character is a multiple of Char units wide)
