.SH NAME
\fB\%keybound\fP \-
get definition of \fIcurses\fR keycode
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fB#include <curses.h>\fP
-.sp
+.PP
\fBchar * keybound(int \fIkeycode\fB, int \fIcount);\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
-This is an extension to the curses library.
+This is an extension to the \fIcurses\fP library.
It permits an application to determine the string which is defined
in the terminfo for specific keycodes.
.SH RETURN VALUE
-The \fIkeycode\fP parameter must be greater than zero, else NULL is returned.
-If it does not correspond to a defined key, then NULL is returned.
+The \fIkeycode\fP parameter must be greater than zero, else \fBNULL\fP is returned.
+If it does not correspond to a defined key, then \fBNULL\fP is returned.
The \fIcount\fP parameter is used to allow the application to iterate
through multiple definitions, counting from zero.
When successful,
the function returns a string which must be freed by the caller.
.SH PORTABILITY
-This routine is specific to ncurses.
+This routine is specific to \fIncurses\fP.
It was not supported on
Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
It is recommended that
-any code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
+any code depending on them be conditioned using \fB\%NCURSES_VERSION\fP.
