-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an
- application to define keycodes with their corresponding
- control strings, so that the ncurses library will inter-
- pret them just as it would the predefined codes in the
- terminfo database.
-
- If the given string is null, any existing definition for
- the keycode is removed. Similarly, if the given keycode
- is negative or zero, any existing string for the given
- definition is removed.
-
-
-</PRE>
-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- The keycode must be greater than zero, else ERR is
- returned.

- These routines are specific to ncurses. They were not

- It is recommended that any code depending on them be con-
- ditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
