DESCRIPTION
setterm
writes to standard output a character string that will invoke the specified
terminal capabilities. Where possibile
terminfo
is consulted to find the string to use. Some options however do not
correspond to a
terminfo (5)
capability. In this case, if the terminal type is "con", or
"linux" the string that invokes the specified capabilities on the PC
Minix virtual console driver is output. Options that are not implemented
by the terminal are ignored.
OPTIONS
Most options are self explanatory. The less obvious options are as
follows:
-term
can be used to override the TERM environment variable.
-reset
displays the terminal reset string, which typically resets the terminal to
its power on state.
-initialize
displays the terminal initialization string, which typically sets the
terminal's rendering options, and other attributes to the default values.
-default
sets the terminal's rendering options to the default values.
-store
stores the terminal's current rendering options as the default values.
SEE ALSO
BUGS
Differences between the Minix and Linux versions are not documented.
