+.Sh NAME
+.Nm remote
+.Nd remote host description file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The systems known by
+.Xr tip 1
+and their attributes are stored in an
+.Tn ASCII
+file which
+is structured as described by
+.Xr capfile 5 .
+Each line in the file provides a description for a single
+.Em system .
+Fields are separated by a colon
+.Pq Dq \&: .
+Lines ending in a \e character with an immediately following newline are
+continued on the next line.
+.Pp
+The first entry is the name(s) of the host system.
+If there is more than one name for a system, the names are separated
+by vertical bars.
+After the name of the system comes the fields of the description.
+A field name followed by an `=' sign indicates a string value follows.
+A field name followed by a `#' sign indicates a following numeric value.
+.Pp
+Entries named
+.Dq tip*
+and
+.Dq cu*
+are used as default entries by
+.Xr tip 1 ,
+and the
+.Xr cu 1
+interface to
+.Xr tip 1 ,
+as follows.
+When
+.Xr tip 1
+is invoked with only a phone number, it looks for an entry
+of the form
+.Dq tip300 ,
+where 300 is the baud rate with
+which the connection is to be made.
+When the
+.Xr cu 1
+interface is used, entries of the form
+.Dq cu300
+are used.
+.Sh CAPABILITIES
+Capabilities are either strings (str), numbers (num), or boolean flags (bool).
+A string capability is specified by
+.Em "capability=value" ;
+for example,
+.Dq Li dv=/dev/harris .
+A numeric capability is specified by
+.Em "capability#value" ;
+for example,
+.Dq Li xa#99 .
+A boolean capability is specified by simply listing the capability.
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Cm \&at
+(str)
+Auto call unit type.
+.It Cm \&br
+(num)
+The baud rate used in establishing
+a connection to the remote host.
+This is a decimal number.
+The default baud rate is 300 baud.
+.It Cm \&cm
+(str)
+An initial connection message to be sent to the remote host.
+For example, if a host is reached through a port selector, this might
+be set to the appropriate sequence required to switch to the host.
+.It Cm \&cu
+(str)
+Call unit if making a phone call.
+Default is the same as the `dv' field.
+.It Cm \&dc
+(bool)
+This host is directly connected, and tip should not expect carrier detect
+to be high, nor should it exit if carrier detect drops.
+.It Cm \&di
+(str)
+Disconnect message sent to the host when a
+disconnect is requested by the user.
+.It Cm \&du
+(bool)
+This host is on a dial-up line.
+.It Cm \&dv
+(str)
+.Ux
+device(s) to open to establish a connection.
+If this file refers to a terminal line,
+.Xr tip 1
+attempts to perform an exclusive open on the device to ensure only
+one user at a time has access to the port.
+.It Cm \&el
+(str)
+Characters marking an end-of-line.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+`~' escapes are only
+recognized by
+.Xr tip 1
+after one of the characters in `el',
+or after a carriage-return.
+.It Cm \&fs
+(str)
+Frame size for transfers.
+The default frame size is equal to
+.Dv BUFSIZ .
+.It Cm \&hd
+(bool)
+The host uses half-duplex communication, local
+echo should be performed.
+.It Cm \&hf
+(bool)
+Use hardware (RTS/CTS) flow control.
+.It Cm \&ie
+(str)
+Input end-of-file marks.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+.It Cm \&oe
+(str)
+Output end-of-file string.
+The default is
+.Dv NULL .
+When
+.Xr tip 1
+is transferring a file, this
+string is sent at end-of-file.
+.It Cm \&pa
+(str)
+The type of parity to use when sending data
+to the host.
+This may be one of
+.Sy even ,
+.Sy odd ,
+.Sy none ,
+.Sy zero
+(always set bit 8 to zero),
+.Sy one
+(always set bit 8 to one).
+The default is even parity.
+.It Cm \&pn
+(str)
+Telephone number(s) for this host.
+If the telephone number field contains an @ sign,
+.Xr tip 1
+searches the file
+.Pa /etc/phones
+file for a list of telephone numbers;
+see
+.Xr phones 5 .
+.It Cm \&tc
+(str)
+Indicates that the list of capabilities is continued in the named
+description.
+This is used primarily to share common capability information.
