Tgetent

$terminal = Tgetent Term::Cap {
 TERM => termtype, OSPEED=>ospeed }

• Acts as the constructor for Term::Cap. Extracts the termcap entry for terminal type termtype and returns a reference to a terminal object. The termcap entry itself is $terminal->{TERMCAP}. Calls Carp::croak on failure. Takes the following arguments:
  • TERM => termtype
  • Terminal type. Defaults to the value of the environment variable TERM if termtype is false or undefined.
  • OSPEED => ospeed
  • The terminal output bit rate, specified as either a POSIX termios/SYSV termio speed or an old BSD-style speed. You can use the POSIX module to get your terminal's output speed (in ospeed here).
