<STRONG>term</STRONG>
-</PRE>
-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- Compiled terminfo descriptions are placed under the direc-
- tory <STRONG>/usr/share/terminfo</STRONG>. In order to avoid a linear
- search of a huge UNIX system directory, a two-level scheme
- is used: <STRONG>/usr/share/terminfo/c/name</STRONG> where <EM>name</EM> is the name
- of the terminal, and <EM>c</EM> is the first character of <EM>name</EM>.
- Thus, <EM>act4</EM> can be found in the file <STRONG>/usr/share/ter-</STRONG>
- <STRONG>minfo/a/act4</STRONG>. Synonyms for the same terminal are imple-
- mented by multiple links to the same compiled file.
-
- The format has been chosen so that it will be the same on
- all hardware. An 8 or more bit byte is assumed, but no
- assumptions about byte ordering or sign extension are
- made.
-
- The compiled file is created with the <EM>tic</EM> program, and
- read by the routine <EM>setupterm</EM>. The file is divided into
- six parts: the header, terminal names, boolean flags, num-
- bers, strings, and string table.
-
- The header section begins the file. This section contains
- six short integers in the format described below. These
- integers are (1) the magic number (octal 0432); (2) the
- size, in bytes, of the names section; (3) the number of
- bytes in the boolean section; (4) the number of short
- integers in the numbers section; (5) the number of offsets
- (short integers) in the strings section; (6) the size, in
- bytes, of the string table.
-
- Short integers are stored in two 8-bit bytes. The first
- byte contains the least significant 8 bits of the value,
- and the second byte contains the most significant 8 bits.
- (Thus, the value represented is 256*second+first.) The
- value -1 is represented by the two bytes 0377, 0377; other
- negative values are illegal. This value generally means
- that the corresponding capability is missing from this
- terminal. Note that this format corresponds to the hard-
- ware of the VAX and PDP-11 (that is, little-endian
- machines). Machines where this does not correspond to the
- hardware must read the integers as two bytes and compute
- the little-endian value.
-
- The terminal names section comes next. It contains the
- first line of the terminfo description, listing the vari-
- ous names for the terminal, separated by the `|' charac-
- ter. The section is terminated with an ASCII NUL charac-
- ter.
-
- The boolean flags have one byte for each flag. This byte
- is either 0 or 1 as the flag is present or absent. The
- capabilities are in the same order as the file <term.h>.
-
- Between the boolean section and the number section, a null
- byte will be inserted, if necessary, to ensure that the
- number section begins on an even byte (this is a relic of
- the PDP-11's word-addressed architecture, originally
- designed in to avoid IOT traps induced by addressing a
- word on an odd byte boundary). All short integers are
- aligned on a short word boundary.
-
- The numbers section is similar to the flags section. Each
- capability takes up two bytes, and is stored as a little-
- endian short integer. If the value represented is -1, the
- capability is taken to be missing.
-
- The strings section is also similar. Each capability is
- stored as a short integer, in the format above. A value
- of -1 means the capability is missing. Otherwise, the
- value is taken as an offset from the beginning of the
- string table. Special characters in ^X or \c notation are
- stored in their interpreted form, not the printing repre-
- sentation. Padding information $<nn> and parameter infor-
- mation %x are stored intact in uninterpreted form.
-
- The final section is the string table. It contains all
- the values of string capabilities referenced in the string
- section. Each string is null terminated.
-
- Note that it is possible for <EM>setupterm</EM> to expect a differ-
- ent set of capabilities than are actually present in the
- file. Either the database may have been updated since
- <EM>setupterm</EM> has been recompiled (resulting in extra unrecog-
- nized entries in the file) or the program may have been
- recompiled more recently than the database was updated
- (resulting in missing entries). The routine <EM>setupterm</EM>
- must be prepared for both possibilities - this is why the
- numbers and sizes are included. Also, new capabilities
- must always be added at the end of the lists of boolean,
- number, and string capabilities.
-
- Despite the consistent use of little-endian for numbers
- and the otherwise self-describing format, it is not wise
- to count on portability of binary terminfo entries between
- commercial UNIX versions. The problem is that there are
- at least three versions of terminfo (under HP-UX, AIX, and
- OSF/1) which diverged from System V terminfo after SVr1,
- and have added extension capabilities to the string table
- that (in the binary format) collide with System V and XSI
- Curses extensions. See <STRONG><A HREF="terminfo.5.html">terminfo(5)</A></STRONG> for detailed discus-
- sion of terminfo source compatibility issues.

- the Lear-Siegler ADM-3, a popular though rather stupid
- early terminal:

+ Compiled terminfo descriptions are placed under the directory
+ <STRONG>/usr/share/terminfo</STRONG>. Two configurations are supported (when building

+ <STRONG>directory</STRONG> <STRONG>tree</STRONG>
+ A two-level scheme is used to avoid a linear search of a huge Unix

+ <EM>act4</EM> can be found in the file <STRONG>/usr/share/terminfo/a/act4</STRONG>.
+ Synonyms for the same terminal are implemented by multiple links

+ <STRONG>hashed</STRONG> <STRONG>database</STRONG>
+ Using Berkeley database, two types of records are stored: the

+ with the terminfo's primary name as a key, and records containing
+ only aliases pointing to the primary name.

+ <EM>ncurses</EM> distinguishes the two cases in the <EM>TERMINFO</EM> and

+ The format has been chosen so that it will be the same on all hardware.
+ An 8 or more bit byte is assumed, but no assumptions about byte

+

+

+
+ d) <EM>numbers</EM>,
+
+ e) <EM>strings</EM>, and
+
+ f) <EM>string</EM> <EM>table</EM>.
+
+ The <EM>header</EM> section begins the file. This section contains six short
+ integers in the format described below. These integers are
+
+ (1) the <EM>magic</EM> <EM>number</EM> (octal 0432);
+
+ (2) the size, in bytes, of the <EM>terminal</EM> <EM>names</EM> section;
+
+ (3) the number of bytes in the <EM>boolean</EM> <EM>flags</EM> section;
+
+ (4) the number of short integers in the <EM>numbers</EM> section;
+
+ (5) the number of offsets (short integers) in the <EM>strings</EM> section;
+
+ (6) the size, in bytes, of the <EM>string</EM> <EM>table</EM>.
+
+ The capabilities in the <EM>boolean</EM> <EM>flags</EM>, <EM>numbers</EM>, and <EM>strings</EM> sections
+ are in the same order as the file <term.h>.
+
+ Short integers are signed, in the range -32768 to 32767. They are
+ stored as two 8-bit bytes. The first byte contains the least
+ significant 8 bits of the value, and the second byte contains the most
+ significant 8 bits. (Thus, the value represented is 256*second+first.)
+ This format corresponds to the hardware of the VAX and PDP-11 (that is,
+ little-endian machines). Machines where this does not correspond to
+ the hardware must read the integers as two bytes and compute the
+ little-endian value.
+
+ Numbers in a terminal description, whether they are entries in the
+ <EM>numbers</EM> or <EM>strings</EM> table, are positive integers. Boolean flags are
+ treated as positive one-byte integers. In each case, those positive
+ integers represent a terminal capability. The terminal compiler tic
+ uses negative integers to handle the cases where a capability is not
+ available:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If a capability is absent from this terminal, tic stores a -1 in
+ the corresponding table.
+
+ The integer value -1 is represented by two bytes 0377, 0377.
+ Absent boolean values are represented by the byte 0 (false).
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If a capability has been canceled from this terminal, tic stores a
+ -2 in the corresponding table.
+
+ The integer value -2 is represented by two bytes 0377, 0376.
+ The boolean value -2 is represented by the byte 0376.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> Other negative values are illegal.
+
+ The <EM>terminal</EM> <EM>names</EM> section comes after the <EM>header</EM>. It contains the
+ first line of the terminfo description, listing the various names for
+ the terminal, separated by the "|" character. The <EM>terminal</EM> <EM>names</EM>
+ section is terminated with an ASCII NUL character.
+
+ The <EM>boolean</EM> <EM>flags</EM> section has one byte for each flag. Boolean
+ capabilities are either 1 or 0 (true or false) according to whether the
+ terminal supports the given capability or not.
+
+ Between the <EM>boolean</EM> <EM>flags</EM> section and the <EM>number</EM> section, a null byte
+ will be inserted, if necessary, to ensure that the <EM>number</EM> section
+ begins on an even byte This is a relic of the PDP-11's word-addressed
+ architecture, originally designed to avoid traps induced by addressing
+ a word on an odd byte boundary. All short integers are aligned on a
+ short word boundary.
+
+ The <EM>numbers</EM> section is similar to the <EM>boolean</EM> <EM>flags</EM> section. Each
+ capability takes up two bytes, and is stored as a little-endian short
+ integer.
+
+ The <EM>strings</EM> section is also similar. Each capability is stored as a
+ short integer. The capability value is an index into the <EM>string</EM> <EM>table</EM>.
+
+ The <EM>string</EM> <EM>table</EM> is the last section. It contains all of the values of
+ string capabilities referenced in the <EM>strings</EM> section. Each string is
+ null-terminated. Special characters in ^X or \c notation are stored in
+ their interpreted form, not the printing representation. Padding
+ information $<nn> and parameter information %x are stored intact in
+ uninterpreted form.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Extended-Storage-Format">Extended Storage Format</a></H3><PRE>
+ The previous section describes the conventional terminfo binary format.
+ With some minor variations of the offsets (see PORTABILITY), the same
+ binary format is used in all modern Unix systems. Each system uses a
+ predefined set of boolean, number or string capabilities.
+
+ The <EM>ncurses</EM> libraries and applications support extended terminfo binary
+ format, allowing users to define capabilities which are loaded at
+ runtime. This extension is made possible by using the fact that the
+ other implementations stop reading the terminfo data when they have
+ reached the end of the size given in the header. <EM>ncurses</EM> checks the
+ size, and if it exceeds that due to the predefined data, continues to
+ parse according to its own scheme.
+
+ First, it reads the extended header (5 short integers):
+
+ (1) count of extended boolean capabilities
+
+ (2) count of extended numeric capabilities
+
+ (3) count of extended string capabilities
+
+ (4) count of the items in extended string table
+
+ (5) size of the extended string table in bytes
+
+ The count- and size-values for the extended string table include the
+ extended capability <EM>names</EM> as well as extended capability <EM>values</EM>.
+
+ Using the counts and sizes, <EM>ncurses</EM> allocates arrays and reads data for
+ the extended capabilities in the same order as the header information.
+
+ The extended string table contains values for string capabilities.
+ After the end of these values, it contains the names for each of the
+ extended capabilities in order, e.g., booleans, then numbers and
+ finally strings.
+
+ By storing terminal descriptions in this way, <EM>ncurses</EM> is able to
+ provide a database useful with legacy applications, as well as
+ providing data for applications which need more than the predefined
+ capabilities. See <STRONG><A HREF="user_caps.5.html">user_caps(5)</A></STRONG> for an overview of the way <EM>ncurses</EM> uses
+ this extended information.
+
+ Applications which manipulate terminal data can use the definitions
+ described in <STRONG><A HREF="term_variables.3x.html">term_variables(3x)</A></STRONG> which associate the long capability
+ names with members of a <STRONG>TERMTYPE</STRONG> structure.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Extended-Number-Format">Extended Number Format</a></H3><PRE>
+ On occasion, 16-bit signed integers are not large enough. With <EM>ncurses</EM>
+ 6.1, a new format was introduced by making a few changes to the legacy
+ format:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> a different magic number (octal 01036)
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> changing the type for the <EM>number</EM> array from signed 16-bit integers
+ to signed 32-bit integers.
+
+ To maintain compatibility, the library presents the same data
+ structures to direct users of the <STRONG>TERMTYPE</STRONG> structure as in previous
+ formats. However, that cannot provide callers with the extended
+ numbers. The library uses a similar but hidden data structure
+ <STRONG>TERMTYPE2</STRONG> to provide data for the terminfo functions.

+ X/Open Curses does not specify a format for the terminfo database.
+ System V curses used a directory-tree of binary files, one per terminal
+ description.
+
+ Despite the consistent use of little-endian for numbers and the
+ otherwise self-describing format, it is not wise to count on
+ portability of binary terminfo entries between commercial Unix
+ versions. The problem is that there are at least three versions of
+ terminfo (under HP-UX, AIX, and OSF/1) which diverged from System V
+ terminfo after SVr1, and have added extension capabilities to the
+ string table that (in the binary format) collide with System V and XSI
+ Curses extensions. See <STRONG><A HREF="terminfo.5.html">terminfo(5)</A></STRONG> for detailed discussion of terminfo
+ source compatibility issues.
+
+ This implementation is by default compatible with the binary terminfo
+ format used by Solaris curses, except in a few less-used details where
+ it was found that the latter did not match X/Open Curses. The format
+ used by the other Unix versions can be matched by building <EM>ncurses</EM> with
+ different configuration options.
+
+
+</PRE><H3><a name="h3-Magic-Codes">Magic Codes</a></H3><PRE>
+ The magic number in a binary terminfo file is the first 16-bits (two
+ bytes). Besides making it more reliable for the library to check that
+ a file is terminfo, utilities such as <STRONG>file(1)</STRONG> also use that to tell
+ what the file-format is. System V defined more than one magic number,
+ with 0433, 0435 as screen-dumps (see <STRONG><A HREF="scr_dump.5.html">scr_dump(5)</A></STRONG>). This implementation
+ uses 01036 as a continuation of that sequence, but with a different
+ high-order byte to avoid confusion.
+
+ <STRONG>The</STRONG> <EM>TERMTYPE</EM> <STRONG>Structure</STRONG>
+ Direct access to the <STRONG>TERMTYPE</STRONG> structure is provided for legacy

+ <EM>ncurses</EM> stores compiled terminal descriptions in three related formats,

+
+ The legacy storage format and the extended number format differ by the
