- The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> library routines give the user a terminal-
- independent method of updating character screens with rea-
- sonable optimization. This implementation is "new curses"
- (ncurses) and is the approved replacement for 4.4BSD clas-
- sic curses, which has been discontinued. This describes
- <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> version 6.0 (patch 20160611).
-
- The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> library emulates the curses library of System
- V Release 4 UNIX, and XPG4 (X/Open Portability Guide)
- curses (also known as XSI curses). XSI stands for X/Open
- System Interfaces Extension. The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> library is
- freely redistributable in source form. Differences from
- the SVr4 curses are summarized under the <STRONG>EXTENSIONS</STRONG> and
- <STRONG>PORTABILITY</STRONG> sections below and described in detail in the
- respective <STRONG>EXTENSIONS</STRONG>, <STRONG>PORTABILITY</STRONG> and <STRONG>BUGS</STRONG> sections of
- individual man pages.
-
- The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> library also provides many useful extensions,
- i.e., features which cannot be implemented by a simple
- add-on library but which require access to the internals
- of the library.
-
- A program using these routines must be linked with the
- <STRONG>-lncurses</STRONG> option, or (if it has been generated) with the
- debugging library <STRONG>-lncurses_g</STRONG>. (Your system integrator
- may also have installed these libraries under the names
- <STRONG>-lcurses</STRONG> and <STRONG>-lcurses_g</STRONG>.) The ncurses_g library generates
- trace logs (in a file called 'trace' in the current direc-
- tory) that describe curses actions. See also the section
- on <STRONG>ALTERNATE</STRONG> <STRONG>CONFIGURATIONS</STRONG>.
-
- The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> package supports: overall screen, window and
- pad manipulation; output to windows and pads; reading ter-
- minal input; control over terminal and <STRONG>curses</STRONG> input and
- output options; environment query routines; color manipu-
- lation; use of soft label keys; terminfo capabilities; and
- access to low-level terminal-manipulation routines.

- The <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> library permits manipulation of data struc-
- tures, called <EM>windows</EM>, which can be thought of as two-
- dimensional arrays of characters representing all or part
- of a CRT screen. A default window called <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>, which is
- the size of the terminal screen, is supplied. Others may
- be created with <STRONG>newwin</STRONG>.
-
- Note that <STRONG>curses</STRONG> does not handle overlapping windows,
- that's done by the <STRONG><A HREF="panel.3x.html">panel(3x)</A></STRONG> library. This means that you
- can either use <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG> or divide the screen into tiled win-
- dows and not using <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG> at all. Mixing the two will
- result in unpredictable, and undesired, effects.
-
- Windows are referred to by variables declared as <STRONG>WINDOW</STRONG> <STRONG>*</STRONG>.
- These data structures are manipulated with routines
- described here and elsewhere in the <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> manual pages.
- Among those, the most basic routines are <STRONG>move</STRONG> and <STRONG>addch</STRONG>.
- More general versions of these routines are included with
- names beginning with <STRONG>w</STRONG>, allowing the user to specify a
- window. The routines not beginning with <STRONG>w</STRONG> affect <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>.
-
- After using routines to manipulate a window, <STRONG>refresh</STRONG> is
- called, telling <STRONG>curses</STRONG> to make the user's CRT screen look
- like <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>. The characters in a window are actually of
- type <STRONG>chtype</STRONG>, (character and attribute data) so that other
- information about the character may also be stored with
- each character.
-
- Special windows called <EM>pads</EM> may also be manipulated.
- These are windows which are not constrained to the size of
- the screen and whose contents need not be completely dis-
- played. See <STRONG><A HREF="curs_pad.3x.html">curs_pad(3x)</A></STRONG> for more information.
-
- In addition to drawing characters on the screen, video
- attributes and colors may be supported, causing the char-
- acters to show up in such modes as underlined, in reverse
- video, or in color on terminals that support such display
- enhancements. Line drawing characters may be specified to
- be output. On input, <STRONG>curses</STRONG> is also able to translate
- arrow and function keys that transmit escape sequences
- into single values. The video attributes, line drawing
- characters, and input values use names, defined in
- <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG>, such as <STRONG>A_REVERSE</STRONG>, <STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>, and <STRONG>KEY_LEFT</STRONG>.

- Specify the width of the screen in characters. Applica-
- tions running in a windowing environment usually are able
- to obtain the width of the window in which they are exe-
- cuting. If neither the <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> value nor the terminal's
- screen size is available, <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> uses the size which may
- be specified in the terminfo database (i.e., the <STRONG>cols</STRONG>
- capability).
-
- It is important that your application use a correct size
- for the screen. This is not always possible because your
- application may be running on a host which does not honor
- NAWS (Negotiations About Window Size), or because you are
- temporarily running as another user. However, setting
- <STRONG>COLUMNS</STRONG> and/or <STRONG>LINES</STRONG> overrides the library's use of the

+
+ You must also enable the wide-character features in the header
+ file when compiling for the wide-character library to use the
+ extended (wide-character) functions. The symbol which enables
+ these features has changed since XSI Curses, Issue 4:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Originally, the wide-character feature required the symbol
+ <STRONG>_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED</STRONG> but that was only valid for XPG4
+ (1996).
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Later, that was deemed conflicting with <STRONG>_XOPEN_SOURCE</STRONG> defined
+ to 500.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> As of mid-2018, none of the features in this implementation
+ require a <STRONG>_XOPEN_SOURCE</STRONG> feature greater than 600. However,
+ X/Open Curses, Issue 7 (2009) recommends defining it to 700.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Alternatively, you can enable the feature by defining
+ <STRONG>NCURSES_WIDECHAR</STRONG> with the caveat that some other header file
+ than <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG> may require a specific value for <STRONG>_XOPEN_SOURCE</STRONG>
+ (or a system-specific symbol).
+
+ The <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG> file which is installed for the wide-character
+ library is designed to be compatible with the normal library's
+ header. Only the size of the <STRONG>WINDOW</STRONG> structure differs, and very
+ few applications require more than a pointer to <STRONG>WINDOW</STRONG>s.
+
+ If the headers are installed allowing overwrite, the wide-
+ character library's headers should be installed last, to allow

- The header file <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG> automatically includes the
- header files <STRONG><stdio.h></STRONG> and <STRONG><unctrl.h></STRONG>.
+ X/Open Curses has more to say, but does not finish the story:
+
+ The inclusion of <curses.h> may make visible all symbols from the
+ headers <stdio.h>, <term.h>, <termios.h>, and <wchar.h>.
+
+ Here is a more complete story:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Starting with BSD curses, all implementations have included
+ <stdio.h>.
+
+ BSD curses included <curses.h> and <unctrl.h> from an internal
+ header "curses.ext" ("ext" was a short name for <EM>externs</EM>).
+
+ BSD curses used <stdio.h> internally (for <STRONG>printw</STRONG> and <STRONG>scanw</STRONG>), but
+ nothing in <curses.h> itself relied upon <stdio.h>.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> SVr2 curses added <STRONG><A HREF="curs_initscr.3x.html">newterm(3x)</A></STRONG>, which relies upon <stdio.h>. That
+ is, the function prototype uses <STRONG>FILE</STRONG>.
+
+ SVr4 curses added <STRONG>putwin</STRONG> and <STRONG>getwin</STRONG>, which also use <stdio.h>.
+
+ X/Open Curses documents all three of these functions.
- If standard output from a <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> program is re-directed
- to something which is not a tty, screen updates will be
- directed to standard error. This was an undocumented fea-
- ture of AT&T System V Release 3 curses.
+ SVr4 curses and X/Open Curses do not require the developer to
+ include <stdio.h> before including <curses.h>. Both document
+ curses showing <curses.h> as the only required header.
+
+ As a result, standard <curses.h> will always include <stdio.h>.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open Curses is inconsistent with respect to SVr4 regarding
+ <unctrl.h>.
+
+ As noted in <STRONG><A HREF="curs_util.3x.html">curs_util(3x)</A></STRONG>, ncurses includes <unctrl.h> from
+ <curses.h> (like SVr4).
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open's comments about <term.h> and <termios.h> may refer to HP-UX
+ and AIX:
+
+ HP-UX curses includes <term.h> from <curses.h> to declare <STRONG>setupterm</STRONG>
+ in curses.h, but ncurses (and Solaris curses) do not.
+
+ AIX curses includes <term.h> and <termios.h>. Again, ncurses (and
+ Solaris curses) do not.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open says that <curses.h> <EM>may</EM> include <term.h>, but there is no
+ requirement that it do that.
+
+ Some programs use functions declared in both <curses.h> and
+ <term.h>, and must include both headers in the same module. Very
+ old versions of AIX curses required including <curses.h> before
+ including <term.h>.
+
+ Because ncurses header files include the headers needed to define
+ datatypes used in the headers, ncurses header files can be included
+ in any order. But for portability, you should include <curses.h>
+ before <term.h>.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open Curses says <EM>"may</EM> <EM>make</EM> <EM>visible"</EM> because including a header
+ file does not necessarily make all symbols in it visible (there are
+ ifdef's to consider).
+
+ For instance, in ncurses <wchar.h> <EM>may</EM> be included if the proper
+ symbol is defined, and if ncurses is configured for wide-character
+ support. If the header is included, its symbols may be made
+ visible. That depends on the value used for <STRONG>_XOPEN_SOURCE</STRONG> feature
+ test macro.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> X/Open Curses documents one required header, in a special case:
+ <stdarg.h> before <curses.h> to prototype the <STRONG>vw_printw</STRONG> and
+ <STRONG>vw_scanw</STRONG> functions (as well as the obsolete the <STRONG>vwprintw</STRONG> and
+ <STRONG>vwscanw</STRONG> functions). Each of those uses a <STRONG>va_list</STRONG> parameter.
+
+ The two obsolete functions were introduced in SVr3. The other
+ functions were introduced in X/Open Curses. In between, SVr4
+ curses provided for the possibility that an application might
+ include either <varargs.h> or <stdarg.h>. Initially, that was done
+ by using <STRONG>void*</STRONG> for the <STRONG>va_list</STRONG> parameter. Later, a special type
+ (defined in <stdio.h>) was introduced, to allow for compiler type-
+ checking. That special type is always available, because <stdio.h>
+ is always included by <curses.h>.
+
+ None of the X/Open Curses implementations require an application to
+ include <stdarg.h> before <curses.h> because they either have
+ allowed for a special type, or (like ncurses) include <stdarg.h>
+ directly to provide a portable interface.
