TABSIZE

TABSIZE

        This  variable  holds  the  number  of columns used by the
        curses library when converting a tab character  to  spaces

The Current Screen

The Current Screen

        This implementation of curses uses a special window curscr
        to record its updates to the terminal screen.

The New Screen

The New Screen

        This implementation of curses uses a special window newscr
        to  hold  updates  to  the terminal screen before applying
        them to curscr.

The Standard Screen

+

The Standard Screen

        Upon initializing curses, a default window called  stdscr,
        which  is  the  size  of  the terminal screen, is created.
        Many curses functions use this window.

NOTES

NOTES

        The   curses   library   is   initialized   using   either
-       curs_initscr(3x), or curs_initscr(3x).
+       initscr(3x), or newterm(3x).
 
        If  curses  is  configured to use separate curses/terminfo
        libraries, most of these variables reside  in  the  curses
        library.
