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-
tioned using NCURSES_VERSION.

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-
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",
+ <STRONG><A HREF="legacy_coding.3x.html">use_legacy_coding(3x)</A></STRONG> has been called with a <STRONG>2</STRONG> parameter, <STRONG>unctrl</STRONG>
+ returns the parameter, i.e., a one-character string with the param-
+ eter 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
"^", 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>.
+ <STRONG><A HREF="legacy_coding.3x.html">use_legacy_coding(3x)</A></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.
