capinfo invokes an ex(C) script to begin the conversion of a
termcap terminal description into the equivalent terminfo
description. capinfo calls fixpad to convert the padding
specifications. The conversion needs to be completed by
hand. The following should be given special attention:
- Many terminfo capabilities do not have termcap equivalents.
The XENIX extensions to termcap do not have terminfo
equivalents.
- The termcap capabilities cr, nl, and ht
are noted in the ex script as being problematical.
