-       This  is an extension to the <EM>curses</EM> library.  It permits an application
-       to disable specific keycodes, rather than use the  <STRONG>keypad</STRONG>  function  to
-       disable all keycodes.  Keys that have been disabled can be re-enabled.
+       The  <STRONG>keyok</STRONG>  <EM>ncurses</EM> extension permits a <EM>curses</EM> application to disable a
+       function key <EM>key-code</EM> returned by <STRONG><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">wgetch(3x)</A></STRONG> (wide-character API users:
+       <STRONG><A HREF="curs_get_wch.3x.html">wget_wch(3x)</A></STRONG>).   Key  codes  that have been disabled can be re-enabled.
+       <EM>bf</EM> indicates the desired enablement status.   This  operation  is  more
+       fine-grained than calling <STRONG><A HREF="curs_inopts.3x.html">keypad(3x)</A></STRONG>, which affects <EM>all</EM> function keys.

-       The  keycode  must  be  greater than zero, else <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> is returned.  If it
-       does not correspond to a defined key, then <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>  is  returned.   If  the
-       <EM>enable</EM>  parameter  is  true,  then the key must have been disabled, and
-       vice versa.  Otherwise, the function returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.
+       <STRONG>keyok</STRONG> returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> if
 
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   <EM>key-code</EM> is nonpositive,

-       This routine is specific to <EM>ncurses</EM>.  It was not supported  on  Version
-       7,  BSD  or  System V implementations.  It is recommended that any code
-       depending on them be conditioned using <STRONG>NCURSES_VERSION</STRONG>.
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   <EM>key-code</EM> is not a recognized value, or
 
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   enablement of <EM>key-code</EM> is already in the desired state.
