       ccaappttooiinnffoo looks in _f_i_l_e  for  tteerrmmccaapp  descriptions.   For
       each  one  found,  an  equivalent  tteerrmmiinnffoo description is
       written to standard output.  Termcap ttcc  capabilities  are
       trnslated directly to terminfo uussee capabilities.

       If no _f_i_l_e is given, then the environment variable TTEERRMMCCAAPP
       is used for the filename or entry.  If TTEERRMMCCAAPP is  a  full
       pathname to a file, only the terminal whose name is speci-
       fied in the environment variable TTEERRMM  is  extracted  from
       that  file.   If  the  environment variable TTEERRMMCCAAPP is not
       set, then the file @@TTEERRMMIINNFFOO@@ is read.

       --vv   print out tracing information on  standard  error  as
            the program runs.

       --VV   print  out the version of the program in use on stan-
            dard error and exit.

       --11   cause the fields to print out one to a line.   Other-
            wise, the fields will be printed several to a line to
            a maximum width of 60 characters.

       --ww   change the output to _w_i_d_t_h characters.

       This  utility is actually a link to _t_i_c(1M), running in _-_I
       mode.

       The trace option isn't identical to SVr4's.   Under  SVr4,
       instead  of  following  the  -v  with a trace level n, you
       repeat it n times.
