.SH DESCRIPTION
A more complete description is given in the \fBcurs_terminfo\fP(3X) manual page.
.PP
Depending on the configuration, these may be actual variables,
-or macros (see \fBcurs_threads\fR(3X))
+or macros (see \fBcurs_threads\fP(3X))
which provide read-only access to \fIcurses\fP's state.
In either case, applications should treat them as read-only to avoid
confusing the library.
use as a parameter to \fBset_term\fP, for switching between screens.
Alternatively, one can save the return value from \fBnewterm\fP
or \fBsetupterm\fP(3X) to reuse in \fBset_term\fP.
-.SS Terminfo Names
+.SS Terminfo Lookup Tables
The \fB@TIC@\fP(1) and \fB@INFOCMP@\fP(1) programs use lookup tables for
the long and short names of terminfo capabilities,
as well as the corresponding names for termcap capabilities.
.ft R
.PP
These symbols provide a faster method of accessing terminfo capabilities
-than using \fBtigetstr\fR(3X), etc.
+than using \fBtigetstr\fP(3X), etc.
.PP
The actual definition of \fBCUR\fP depends upon the implementation,
but each terminfo library provides these long names defined to point
.SH NOTES
The low-level terminfo interface is initialized using

-\fBsetupterm\fR(3X).
+\fBsetupterm\fP(3X).
.hy
The upper-level curses interface uses the low-level terminfo interface,
internally.
Most, but not all, base the definition upon the \fBcur_term\fP variable.
