Each terminal type can have a Lisp library to be loaded into Emacs when
it is run on that type of terminal. For a terminal type named
-@var{termtype}, the library is called @file{term/@var{termtype}} and it is
+@var{termtype}, the library is called @file{term/@var{termtype}}.

+in the @code{term-file-aliases} association list, Emacs uses
+@var{alias} in place of @var{termtype}.) The library is
found by searching the directories @code{load-path} as usual and trying the
suffixes @samp{.elc} and @samp{.el}. Normally it appears in the
subdirectory @file{term} of the directory where most Emacs libraries are
