- The 'tack' program is a diagnostic that is designed to create and
- verify the correctness of terminfo's. This program can be used to
- create new terminal descriptions that are not included in the standard
- release. Although 'tack' is distributed with ncurses, it is not an
- integral part of ncurses. It may be removed from the release without
- limiting the usefulness of ncurses on those terminals described in the
- terminfo data base. The best way to remove 'tack' from the build is
- to delete or rename the 'tack' directory before running the configure
- script.
-
- Unlike most of ncurses the 'tack' program is covered under the GNU
- Public License.
