The slk* functions manipulate the set of soft function-key
- labels that exist on many terminals. For those terminals
+ labels that exist on many terminals. For those terminals
that do not have soft labels, <STRONG>curses</STRONG> takes over the bottom
- line of <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>, reducing the size of <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG> and the vari-
- able <STRONG>LINES</STRONG>. <STRONG>curses</STRONG> standardizes on eight labels of up to
- eight characters each. In addition to this, the ncurses
- implementation supports a mode where it simulates 12 la-
- bels of up to five characters each. This is useful for
- today's PC-like enduser devices. ncurses simulates this
- mode by taking over up to two lines at the bottom of the
- screen; it does not try to use any hardware support for
