     TEL(7)                                                     TEL(7)

     NAME
          tel - local and private telephone books

     SYNOPSIS
          tel name

     DESCRIPTION
          Tel looks up name in a private telephone book,
          `$HOME/lib/tel', if it exists, and in a local book
          `/lib/tel.'

          Tel is simply a script for grep(1), so lookup may be by any
          part of the name or number.  Customarily the local telephone
          book contains names, userids, home numbers, and office num-
          bers of users.  It also contains a directory of area codes
          and miscellaneous people of some general interest.
