NAME


cterm - build a terminal/monitor definition
        [Requires: C/Base Utilities Module]

SYNOPSIS


cterm [textfile ] terminalname

DESCRIPTION


Cterm reads lines from textfile, or standard input if textfile is omitted,
and builds a new terminal definition in the directory /usr/cbase/lib/
cbase/escape with the name terminalname.  If a terminal definition file
already exists for terminalname, it is replaced by the new terminal 
definition.  The terminal definition created is used by escape(C-3) and
getkey to provide a method of using CRT terminals in a terminal independent
manner.  This program is intended mainly to be used in porting terminal
definitions to different systems.
