-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- These routines are included as a conversion aid for pro-
- grams that use the <I>termcap</I> library. Their parameters are
- the same and the routines are emulated using the <I>terminfo</I>
- database. Thus, they can only be used to query the capa-
- bilities of entries for which a terminfo entry has been
- compiled.
- The <B>tgetent</B> routine loads the entry for <I>name</I>. It returns
- 1 on success, 0 if there is no such entry, and -1 if the
- terminfo database could not be found. The emulation
- ignores the buffer pointer <I>bp</I>.

- updated to point past the null ending this value.
- The <B>tgoto</B> routine instantiates the parameters into the
- given capability. The output from this routine is to be
- passed to <B>tputs</B>.
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
+ These routines are included as a conversion aid for programs that use
+ the <EM>termcap</EM> library. Their parameters are the same, but the routines
+ are emulated using the <EM>terminfo</EM> database. Thus, they can only be used
+ to query the capabilities of entries for which a terminfo entry has
+ been compiled.
- The <B>tputs</B> routine is described on the <B><A HREF="curs_terminfo.3x.html">curs_terminfo(3x)</A></B>
- manual page. It can retrieve capabilities by either term-
- cap or terminfo name.
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Initialization">Initialization</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> routine loads the entry for <EM>name</EM>. It returns:
+ 1 on success,

-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- Except where explicitly noted, routines that return an
- integer return <B>ERR</B> upon failure and <B>OK</B> (SVr4 only speci-
- fies "an integer value other than <B>ERR</B>") upon successful
- completion.
+ 0 if there is no such entry (or that it is a generic type, having
+ too little information for curses applications to run), and
- Routines that return pointers return <B>NULL</B> on error.
+ -1 if the terminfo database could not be found.
+ This differs from the <EM>termcap</EM> library in two ways:
-</PRE>
-<H2>BUGS</H2><PRE>
- If you call <B>tgetstr</B> to fetch <B>ca</B> or any other parameterized
- string, be aware that it will be returned in terminfo
- notation, not the older and not-quite-compatible termcap
- notation. This won't cause problems if all you do with it
- is call <B>tgoto</B> or <B>tparm</B>, which both expand terminfo-style.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The emulation ignores the buffer pointer <EM>bp</EM>. The <EM>termcap</EM> li-
+ brary would store a copy of the terminal description in the area
+ referenced by this pointer. However, ncurses stores its termi-
+ nal descriptions in compiled binary form, which is not the same
+ thing.
- Because terminfo conventions for representing padding in
- string capabilities differ from termcap's, <B>tputs("50");</B>
- will put out a literal "50" rather than busy-waiting for
- 50 milliseconds. Cope with it.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> There is a difference in return codes. The <EM>termcap</EM> library does
+ not check if the terminal description is marked with the <EM>generic</EM>
+ capability, or if the terminal description has cursor-address-
+ ing.
-</PRE>
-<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
- The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these func-
- tions. However, they are marked TO BE WITHDRAWN and may
- be removed in future versions.
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Capability-Values">Capability Values</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>tgetflag</STRONG> routine gets the boolean entry for <EM>id</EM>, or zero if it is
+ not available.
- Neither the XSI Curses standard nor the SVr4 man pages
- documented the return values of <B>tgetent</B> correctly, though
- all three were in fact returned ever since SVr1.
+ The <STRONG>tgetnum</STRONG> routine gets the numeric entry for <EM>id</EM>, or -1 if it is not
+ available.
+ The <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG> routine returns the string entry for <EM>id</EM>, or zero if it is
+ not available. Use <STRONG>tputs</STRONG> to output the returned string. The <EM>area</EM> pa-
+ rameter is used as follows:
-</PRE>

+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> It is assumed to be the address of a pointer to a buffer managed
+ by the calling application.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> However, ncurses checks to ensure that <STRONG>area</STRONG> is not NULL, and al-
+ so that the resulting buffer pointer is not NULL. If either
+ check fails, the <EM>area</EM> parameter is ignored.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If the checks succeed, ncurses also copies the return value to
+ the buffer pointed to by <EM>area</EM>, and the <EM>area</EM> value will be updat-
+ ed to point past the null ending this value.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The return value itself is an address in the terminal descrip-
+ tion which is loaded into memory.
+
+ Only the first two characters of the <STRONG>id</STRONG> parameter of <STRONG>tgetflag</STRONG>, <STRONG>tgetnum</STRONG>
+ and <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG> are compared in lookups.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Formatting-Capabilities">Formatting Capabilities</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> routine expands the given capability using the parameters.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Because the capability may have padding characters, the output of
+ <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> should be passed to <STRONG>tputs</STRONG> rather than some other output func-
+ tion such as <STRONG>printf(3)</STRONG>.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> While <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> is assumed to be used for the two-parameter cursor po-
+ sitioning capability, termcap applications also use it for single-
+ parameter capabilities.
+
+ Doing this shows a quirk in <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG>: most hardware terminals use cur-
+ sor addressing with <EM>row</EM> first, but the original developers of the
+ termcap interface chose to put the <EM>column</EM> parameter first. The
+ <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> function swaps the order of parameters. It does this also
+ for calls requiring only a single parameter. In that case, the
+ first parameter is merely a placeholder.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Normally the ncurses library is compiled with terminfo support. In
+ that case, <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> uses <STRONG><A HREF="curs_terminfo.3x.html">tparm(3x)</A></STRONG> (a more capable formatter).
+
+ However, <STRONG>tparm</STRONG> is not a <EM>termcap</EM> feature, and portable <EM>termcap</EM> ap-
+ plications should not rely upon its availability.
+
+ The <STRONG>tputs</STRONG> routine is described on the <STRONG><A HREF="curs_terminfo.3x.html">curs_terminfo(3x)</A></STRONG> manual page.
+ It can retrieve capabilities by either termcap or terminfo name.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Global-Variables">Global Variables</a></H3><PRE>
+ The variables <STRONG>PC</STRONG>, <STRONG>UP</STRONG> and <STRONG>BC</STRONG> are set by <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> to the terminfo entry's
+ data for <STRONG>pad_char</STRONG>, <STRONG>cursor_up</STRONG> and <STRONG>backspace_if_not_bs</STRONG>, respectively. <STRONG>UP</STRONG>
+ is not used by ncurses. <STRONG>PC</STRONG> is used in the <STRONG>tdelay_output</STRONG> function. <STRONG>BC</STRONG>
+ is used in the <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> emulation. The variable <STRONG>ospeed</STRONG> is set by ncurses
+ in a system-specific coding to reflect the terminal speed.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Releasing-Memory">Releasing Memory</a></H3><PRE>
+ The termcap functions provide no means for freeing memory, because
+ legacy termcap implementations used only the buffer areas provided by
+ the caller via <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> and <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG>. Those buffers are unused in ter-
+ minfo.
+
+ On the other hand, terminfo allocates memory. It uses <STRONG>setupterm</STRONG> to re-
+ trieve the data used by <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> and the functions which return capabil-
+ ity values such as <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG>. One could use
+
+ <STRONG>del_curterm(cur_term);</STRONG>
+
+
+ to free this memory, but there is an additional complication with
+ ncurses. It uses a fixed-size <EM>pool</EM> of storage locations, one per set-
+ ting of the <STRONG>TERM</STRONG> variable when <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> is called. The <STRONG>screen(1)</STRONG> pro-
+ gram relies upon this arrangement, to improve its performance.
+
+ An application which uses only the low-level termcap functions could
+ free the memory using <STRONG>del_curterm</STRONG>, because the pool is freed using oth-
+ er functions (see <STRONG><A HREF="curs_memleaks.3x.html">curs_memleaks(3x)</A></STRONG>).
+
+
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
+ Except where explicitly noted, routines that return an integer return
+ <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> (SVr4 only specifies "an integer value other
+ than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>") upon successful completion.
+
+ Routines that return pointers return <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> on error.
+
+
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-BUGS">BUGS</a></H2><PRE>
+ If you call <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG> to fetch <STRONG>ca</STRONG> or any other parameterized string, be
+ aware that it will be returned in terminfo notation, not the older and
+ not-quite-compatible termcap notation. This will not cause problems if
+ all you do with it is call <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> or <STRONG>tparm</STRONG>, which both expand terminfo-
+ style strings as terminfo. (The <STRONG>tgoto</STRONG> function, if configured to sup-
+ port termcap, will check if the string is indeed terminfo-style by
+ looking for "%p" parameters or "$<..>" delays, and invoke a termcap-
+ style parser if the string does not appear to be terminfo).
+
+ Because terminfo conventions for representing padding in string capa-
+ bilities differ from termcap's, users can be surprised:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>tputs("50")</STRONG> in a terminfo system will put out a literal "50" rather
+ than busy-waiting for 50 milliseconds.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> However, if ncurses is configured to support termcap, it may also
+ have been configured to support the BSD-style padding.
+
+ In that case, <STRONG>tputs</STRONG> inspects strings passed to it, looking for dig-
+ its at the beginning of the string.
+
+ <STRONG>tputs("50")</STRONG> in a termcap system may wait for 50 milliseconds rather
+ than put out a literal "50"
+
+ Note that termcap has nothing analogous to terminfo's <STRONG>sgr</STRONG> string. One
+ consequence of this is that termcap applications assume <STRONG>me</STRONG> (terminfo
+ <STRONG>sgr0</STRONG>) does not reset the alternate character set. This implementation
+ checks for, and modifies the data shown to the termcap interface to ac-
+ commodate termcap's limitation in this respect.
+
+
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Standards">Standards</a></H3><PRE>
+ These functions are provided for supporting legacy applications, and
+ should not be used in new programs:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions. Howev-
+ er, they are marked TO BE WITHDRAWN and may be removed in future
+ versions.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open Curses, Issue 5 (December 2007) marked the termcap interface
+ (along with <STRONG>vwprintw</STRONG> and <STRONG>vwscanw</STRONG>) as withdrawn.
+ Neither the XSI Curses standard nor the SVr4 man pages documented the
+ return values of <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> correctly, though all three were in fact re-
+ turned ever since SVr1. In particular, an omission in the XSI Curses
+ documentation has been misinterpreted to mean that <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
+ or <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>. Because the purpose of these functions is to provide compati-
+ bility with the <EM>termcap</EM> library, that is a defect in XCurses, Issue 4,
+ Version 2 rather than in ncurses.
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Compatibility-with-BSD-Termcap">Compatibility with BSD Termcap</a></H3><PRE>
+ External variables are provided for support of certain termcap applica-
+ tions. However, termcap applications' use of those variables is poorly
+ documented, e.g., not distinguishing between input and output. In par-
+ ticular, some applications are reported to declare and/or modify <STRONG>os-</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>peed</STRONG>.
+ The comment that only the first two characters of the <STRONG>id</STRONG> parameter are
+ used escapes many application developers. The original BSD 4.2 termcap
+ library (and historical relics thereof) did not require a trailing null
+ NUL on the parameter name passed to <STRONG>tgetstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>tgetnum</STRONG> and <STRONG>tgetflag</STRONG>.
+ Some applications assume that the termcap interface does not require
+ the trailing NUL for the parameter name. Taking into account these is-
+ sues:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> As a special case, <STRONG>tgetflag</STRONG> matched against a single-character
+ identifier provided that was at the end of the terminal descrip-
+ tion. You should not rely upon this behavior in portable programs.
+ This implementation disallows matches against single-character ca-
+ pability names.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> This implementation disallows matches by the termcap interface
+ against extended capability names which are longer than two charac-
+ ters.
+ The BSD termcap function <STRONG>tgetent</STRONG> returns the text of a termcap entry in
+ the buffer passed as an argument. This library (like other terminfo
+ implementations) does not store terminal descriptions as text. It sets
+ the buffer contents to a null-terminated string.
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Other-Compatibility">Other Compatibility</a></H3><PRE>
+ This library includes a termcap.h header, for compatibility with other
+ implementations. But the header is rarely used because the other im-
+ plementations are not strictly compatible.
+ The original BSD termcap (through 4.3BSD) had no header file which gave
+ function prototypes, because that was a feature of ANSI C. BSD termcap
+ was written several years before C was standardized. However, there
+ were two different termcap.h header files in the BSD sources:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> One was used internally by the <STRONG>jove</STRONG> editor in 2BSD through 4.4BSD.
+ It defined global symbols for the termcap variables which it used.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The other appeared in 4.4BSD Lite Release 2 (mid-1993) as part of
+ <EM>libedit</EM> (also known as the <EM>editline</EM> library). The CSRG source his-
+ tory shows that this was added in mid-1992. The <EM>libedit</EM> header
+ file was used internally, as a convenience for compiling the <EM>edit-</EM>
+ <EM>line</EM> library. It declared function prototypes, but no global vari-
+ ables.
+ The header file from <EM>libedit</EM> was added to NetBSD's termcap library in
+ mid-1994.
+ Meanwhile, GNU termcap was under development, starting in 1990. The
+ first release (termcap 1.0) in 1991 included a termcap.h header. The
+ second release (termcap 1.1) in September 1992 modified the header to
+ use <STRONG>const</STRONG> for the function prototypes in the header where one would ex-
+ pect the parameters to be read-only. This was a difference versus the
+ original BSD termcap. The prototype for <STRONG>tputs</STRONG> also differed, but in
+ that instance, it was <EM>libedit</EM> which differed from BSD termcap.
+ A copy of GNU termcap 1.3 was bundled with <EM>bash</EM> in mid-1993, to support
+ the <STRONG>readline(3)</STRONG> library.
+ A termcap.h file was provided in ncurses 1.8.1 (November 1993). That
+ reflected influence by <STRONG>emacs(1)</STRONG> (rather than <STRONG>jove(1)</STRONG>) and GNU termcap:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> it provided declarations for a few global symbols used by <STRONG>emacs</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> it provided function prototypes (using <STRONG>const</STRONG>).
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> a prototype for <STRONG>tparam</STRONG> (a GNU termcap feature) was provided.
+ Later (in mid-1996) the <STRONG>tparam</STRONG> function was removed from ncurses. As a
+ result, there are differences between any of the four implementations,
+ which must be taken into account by programs which can work with all
+ termcap library interfaces.
