TERM(CT) XENIX System V TERM(CT)
Name
term - Conventional names.
Description
These names are used by certain commands (e.g., nroff(CT),
and mm(CT), and are maintained as part of the shell
environment (see sh(C), profile(M), and environ(M)) in the
variable $TERM:

Up to 8 characters, chosen from [a-z0-9], make up a basic
terminal name. Terminal sub-models and operational modes
are distinguished by suffixes beginning with a -. Names
should generally be based on original vendors, rather than
local distributors. A terminal acquired from one vendor
should not have more than one distinct basic name.
Commands whose behavior depends on the type of terminal
should accept arguments of the form -Tterm where term is one
of the names given above; if no such argument is present,
such commands should obtain the terminal type from the
environment variable $TERM, which, in turn, should contain
term.

Notes
The XENIX Development System must be installed on the
computer to create new driving tables (see term(F)).

Not all XENIX facilities support all of these options.
The use of these terminal types is unrelated to the use of
the termcap(M) facility.
