There are two sets of functions:

The X/Open window attribute routines which <EM>set</EM> or <EM>get</EM>, turn <EM>on</EM> or <EM>off</EM>
are extensions of older routines which assume that color pairs are OR'd
into the attribute parameter. These newer routines use similar names,
although <EM>ncurses</EM> provides <STRONG>getattrs</STRONG> (see <STRONG><A HREF="curs_legacy.3x.html">curs_legacy(3x)</A></STRONG>).

The routine <STRONG>chgat</STRONG> changes the attributes of a given number of
characters starting at the current cursor location of <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>. It does
not update the cursor and does not perform wrapping. A character count
in the first argument of <STRONG>init_pair</STRONG>, see <STRONG><A HREF="curs_color.3x.html">curs_color(3x)</A></STRONG>).

The routine <STRONG>color_set</STRONG> sets the current color of the given window to the
