-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- The <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> routine returns a character string which is a
- printable representation of the character <EM>c</EM>, ignoring
- attributes. Control characters are displayed in the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM>
- notation. Printing characters are displayed as is. The
- corresponding <STRONG>wunctrl</STRONG> returns a printable representation
- of a wide-character.
-
- The <STRONG>keyname</STRONG> routine returns a character string correspond-
- ing to the key <EM>c</EM>. Control characters are displayed in the
- <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation. Values above 128 are either meta characters,
- shown in the <STRONG>M-</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation, or the names of function keys,
- or null. The corresponding <STRONG>key_name</STRONG> returns a character
- string corresponding to the wide-character value <EM>w</EM>. The
- two functions do not return the same set of strings; the
- latter returns null where the former would display a meta
- character.
-
- The <STRONG>filter</STRONG> routine, if used, must be called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG>
- or <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> are called. The effect is that, during those
- calls, <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> is set to 1; the capabilities <STRONG>clear</STRONG>, <STRONG>cup</STRONG>,
- <STRONG>cud</STRONG>, <STRONG>cud1</STRONG>, <STRONG>cuu1</STRONG>, <STRONG>cuu</STRONG>, <STRONG>vpa</STRONG> are disabled; and the <STRONG>home</STRONG>
- string is set to the value of <STRONG>cr</STRONG>.
-
- The <STRONG>use_env</STRONG> routine, if used, is called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> or
- <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> are called. When called with <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> as an argu-
- ment, the values of <STRONG>lines</STRONG> and <STRONG>columns</STRONG> specified in the
- <EM>terminfo</EM> database will be used, even if environment vari-
- ables <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> and <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> (used by default) are set, or if
- <STRONG>curses</STRONG> is running in a window (in which case default
- behavior would be to use the window size if <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> and
- <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> are not set).
-
- The <STRONG>putwin</STRONG> routine writes all data associated with window
- <EM>win</EM> into the file to which <EM>filep</EM> points. This information
- can be later retrieved using the <STRONG>getwin</STRONG> function.
-
- The <STRONG>getwin</STRONG> routine reads window related data stored in the
- file by <STRONG>putwin</STRONG>. The routine then creates and initializes
- a new window using that data. It returns a pointer to the
- new window.
-
- The <STRONG>delay_output</STRONG> routine inserts an <EM>ms</EM> millisecond pause
- in output. This routine should not be used extensively
- because padding characters are used rather than a CPU
- pause.
-
- The <STRONG>flushinp</STRONG> routine throws away any typeahead that has
- been typed by the user and has not yet been read by the
- program.

-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- Except for <STRONG>flushinp</STRONG>, routines that return an integer
- return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> (SVr4 specifies only "an

- <STRONG>flushinp</STRONG> always returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.

+ The <STRONG>keyname</STRONG> routine returns a character string corresponding to the key

+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Printable characters are displayed as themselves, e.g., a one-char-
+ acter string containing the key.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Control characters are displayed in the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> DEL (character 127) is displayed as <STRONG>^?</STRONG>.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Values above 128 are either meta characters (if the screen has not
+ been initialized, or if <STRONG><A HREF="curs_inopts.3x.html">meta(3x)</A></STRONG> has been called with a <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> param-
+ eter), shown in the <STRONG>M-</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation, or are displayed as themselves.
+ In the latter case, the values may not be printable; this follows
+ the X/Open specification.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Values above 256 may be the names of the names of function keys.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Otherwise (if there is no corresponding name) the function returns
+ null, to denote an error. X/Open also lists an "UNKNOWN KEY" re-
+ turn value, which some implementations return rather than null.
+
+ The corresponding <STRONG>key_name</STRONG> returns a character string corresponding to
+ the wide-character value <EM>w</EM>. The two functions do not return the same
+ set of strings; the latter returns null where the former would display
+ a meta character.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-filter_nofilter">filter/nofilter</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>filter</STRONG> routine, if used, must be called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> or <STRONG>newterm</STRONG>
+ are called. Calling <STRONG>filter</STRONG> causes these changes in initialization:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> is set to 1;
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the capabilities <STRONG>clear</STRONG>, <STRONG>cud1</STRONG>, <STRONG>cud</STRONG>, <STRONG>cup</STRONG>, <STRONG>cuu1</STRONG>, <STRONG>cuu</STRONG>, <STRONG>vpa</STRONG> are dis-
+ abled;
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the capability <STRONG>ed</STRONG> is disabled if <STRONG>bce</STRONG> is set;
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> and the <STRONG>home</STRONG> string is set to the value of <STRONG>cr</STRONG>.
+
+ The <STRONG>nofilter</STRONG> routine cancels the effect of a preceding <STRONG>filter</STRONG> call.
+ That allows the caller to initialize a screen on a different device,
+ using a different value of <STRONG>$TERM</STRONG>. The limitation arises because the
+ <STRONG>filter</STRONG> routine modifies the in-memory copy of the terminal information.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-use_env">use_env</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>use_env</STRONG> routine, if used, should be called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> or
+ <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> are called (because those compute the screen size). It modi-
+ fies the way <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> treats environment variables when determining the
+ screen size.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Normally <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> looks first at the terminal database for the
+ screen size.
+
+ If <STRONG>use_env</STRONG> was called with <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> for parameter, it stops here un-
+ less <STRONG>use_tioctl</STRONG> was also called with <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> for parameter.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Then it asks for the screen size via operating system calls. If
+ successful, it overrides the values from the terminal database.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Finally (unless <STRONG>use_env</STRONG> was called with <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> parameter), <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>
+ examines the <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> or <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> environment variables, using a value
+ in those to override the results from the operating system or ter-
+ minal database.
+
+ <STRONG>Ncurses</STRONG> also updates the screen size in response to <STRONG>SIGWINCH</STRONG>, un-
+ less overridden by the <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> or <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> environment variables,
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-use_tioctl">use_tioctl</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>use_tioctl</STRONG> routine, if used, should be called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> or
+ <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> are called (because those compute the screen size). After
+ <STRONG>use_tioctl</STRONG> is called with <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> as an argument, <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> modifies the
+ last step in its computation of screen size as follows:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> checks if the <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> and <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> environment variables are set to a
+ number greater than zero.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> for each, <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> updates the corresponding environment variable
+ with the value that it has obtained via operating system call or
+ from the terminal database.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> re-fetches the value of the environment variables so that
+ it is still the environment variables which set the screen size.
+
+ The <STRONG>use_env</STRONG> and <STRONG>use_tioctl</STRONG> routines combine as summarized here:
+
+ <EM>use</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>env</EM> <EM>use</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>tioctl</EM> <EM>Summary</EM>
+ ----------------------------------------------------------------
+ TRUE FALSE This is the default behavior. <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>
+ uses operating system calls unless over-
+ ridden by $LINES or $COLUMNS environment
+ variables.
+ TRUE TRUE <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> updates $LINES and $COLUMNS
+ based on operating system calls.
+ FALSE TRUE <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> ignores $LINES and $COLUMNS, us-
+ es operating system calls to obtain
+ size.
+ FALSE FALSE <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> relies on the terminal database
+ to determine size.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-putwin_getwin">putwin/getwin</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>putwin</STRONG> routine writes all data associated with window (or pad) <EM>win</EM>
+ into the file to which <EM>filep</EM> points. This information can be later re-
+ trieved using the <STRONG>getwin</STRONG> function.
+
+ The <STRONG>getwin</STRONG> routine reads window related data stored in the file by
+ <STRONG>putwin</STRONG>. The routine then creates and initializes a new window using
+ that data. It returns a pointer to the new window. There are a few
+ caveats:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the data written is a copy of the <STRONG>WINDOW</STRONG> structure, and its associ-
+ ated character cells. The format differs between the wide-charac-
+ ter (<STRONG>ncursesw</STRONG>) and non-wide (<STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>) libraries. You can transfer
+ data between the two, however.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the retrieved window is always created as a top-level window (or
+ pad), rather than a subwindow.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the window's character cells contain the color pair <EM>value</EM>, but not
+ the actual color <EM>numbers</EM>. If cells in the retrieved window use
+ color pairs which have not been created in the application using
+ <STRONG>init_pair</STRONG>, they will not be colored when the window is refreshed.
+

+ The <STRONG>delay_output</STRONG> routine inserts an <EM>ms</EM> millisecond pause in output.
+ This routine should not be used extensively because padding characters
+ are used rather than a CPU pause. If no padding character is speci-
+ fied, this uses <STRONG>napms</STRONG> to perform the delay.

Routines that return pointers return <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> on error.

+ The <STRONG>keyname</STRONG> function may return the names of user-defined string capa-
+ bilities which are defined in the terminfo entry via the <STRONG>-x</STRONG> option of
+ <STRONG>tic</STRONG>. This implementation automatically assigns at run-time keycodes to
+ user-defined strings which begin with "k". The keycodes start at
+ KEY_MAX, but are not guaranteed to be the same value for different runs
+ because user-defined codes are merged from all terminal descriptions
+ which have been loaded. The <STRONG><A HREF="curs_extend.3x.html">use_extended_names(3x)</A></STRONG> function controls

+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-nofilter_use_tioctl">nofilter/use_tioctl</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>nofilter</STRONG> and <STRONG>use_tioctl</STRONG> routines are specific to <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>. They
+ were not supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations. It
+ is recommended that any code depending on <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> extensions be condi-
+ tioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-putwin_getwin">putwin/getwin</a></H3><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>putwin</STRONG> and <STRONG>getwin</STRONG> functions have several issues with portability:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The files written and read by these functions use an implementa-
+ tion-specific format. Although the format is an obvious target for
+ standardization, it has been overlooked.
+ Interestingly enough, according to the copyright dates in Solaris
+ source, the functions (along with <STRONG>scr_init</STRONG>, etc.) originated with
+ the University of California, Berkeley (in 1982) and were later (in
+ 1988) incorporated into SVr4. Oddly, there are no such functions
+ in the 4.3BSD curses sources.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Most implementations simply dump the binary <STRONG>WINDOW</STRONG> structure to the
+ file. These include SVr4 curses, NetBSD and PDCurses, as well as
+ older <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> versions. This implementation (as well as the X/Open
+ variant of Solaris curses, dated 1995) uses textual dumps.
+ The implementations which use binary dumps use block-I/O (the
+ <STRONG>fwrite</STRONG> and <STRONG>fread</STRONG> functions). Those that use textual dumps use
+ buffered-I/O. A few applications may happen to write extra data in
+ the file using these functions. Doing that can run into problems
+ mixing block- and buffered-I/O. This implementation reduces the
+ problem on writes by flushing the output. However, reading from a
+ file written using mixed schemes may not be successful.
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-unctrl_wunctrl">unctrl/wunctrl</a></H3><PRE>
+ The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions. It states
+ that <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> and <STRONG>wunctrl</STRONG> will return a null pointer if unsuccessful, but
+ does not define any error conditions. This implementation checks for
+ three cases:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the parameter is a 7-bit US-ASCII code. This is the case that
+ X/Open Curses documented.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> the parameter is in the range 128-159, i.e., a C1 control code. If
+ <STRONG>use_legacy_coding</STRONG> has been called with a <STRONG>2</STRONG> parameter, <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> re-
+ turns the parameter, i.e., a one-character string with the parame-
+ ter as the first character. Otherwise, it returns "~@", "~A",
+ etc., analogous to "^@", "^A", C0 controls.
+ X/Open Curses does not document whether <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> can be called before
+ initializing curses. This implementation permits that, and returns
+ the "~@", etc., values in that case.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> parameter values outside the 0 to 255 range. <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> returns a null
+ pointer.
+ The strings returned by <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> in this implementation are determined at
+ compile time, showing C1 controls from the upper-128 codes with a "~"
+ prefix rather than "^". Other implementations have different conven-
+ tions. For example, they may show both sets of control characters with
+ "^", and strip the parameter to 7 bits. Or they may ignore C1 controls
+ and treat all of the upper-128 codes as printable. This implementation
+ uses 8 bits but does not modify the string to reflect locale. The
+ <STRONG>use_legacy_coding</STRONG> function allows the caller to change the output of
+ <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG>.
+ Likewise, the <STRONG><A HREF="curs_inopts.3x.html">meta(3x)</A></STRONG> function allows the caller to change the output
+ of <STRONG>keyname</STRONG>, i.e., it determines whether to use the "M-" prefix for
+ "meta" keys (codes in the range 128 to 255). Both <STRONG>use_legacy_coding</STRONG>
+ and <STRONG>meta</STRONG> succeed only after curses is initialized. X/Open Curses does
+ not document the treatment of codes 128 to 159. When treating them as
+ "meta" keys (or if <STRONG>keyname</STRONG> is called before initializing curses), this
+ implementation returns strings "M-^@", "M-^A", etc.
+ X/Open Curses documents <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG> as declared in <STRONG><unctrl.h></STRONG>, which <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>
+ does. However, <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>' <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG> includes <STRONG><unctrl.h></STRONG>, matching the
+ behavior of SVr4 curses. Other implementations may not do that.
