keyok 3x




NAME

       keybound - return definition of keycode


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       char * keybound(int keycode, int count);


DESCRIPTION

       This is an extension to the curses library.  It permits an
       application to determine the string which  is  defined  in
       the terminfo for specific keycodes.


RETURN VALUE

       The  keycode  must  be  greater  than  zero,  else NULL is
       returned.  If it does not correspond  to  a  defined  key,
       then  NULL is returned.  Otherwise, the function returns a
       string, which must be freed by the caller.


PORTABILITY

       These routines are specific to  ncurses.   They  were  not
       supported  on  Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
       It is recommended that any code depending on them be  con-
       ditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
