<a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
This page summarizes variables provided by the <STRONG>curses</STRONG> li-
brary's low-level terminfo interface. A more complete de-
scription is given in the <STRONG><A HREF="curs_terminfo.3x.html">curs_terminfo(3x)</A></STRONG> manual page.
plications should treat them as read-only to avoid confus-
ing the library.

+
+</PRE>
+<H3><a name="h3-Alternate-Character-Set-Mapping">Alternate Character Set Mapping</a></H3><PRE>
After initializing the curses or terminfo interfaces, the
<STRONG>acs_map</STRONG> array holds information used to translate cells
with the <STRONG>A_ALTCHARSET</STRONG> video attribute into line-drawing
The comparable data for the wide-character library is a
private variable.
- <STRONG>Current</STRONG> <STRONG>Terminal</STRONG> <STRONG>Data</STRONG>
+
+</PRE>
+<H3><a name="h3-Current-Terminal-Data">Current Terminal Data</a></H3><PRE>
After initializing the curses or terminfo interfaces, the
<STRONG>cur_term</STRONG> contains data describing the current terminal.
This variable is also set as a side-effect of <STRONG><A HREF="curs_initscr.3x.html">curs_initscr(3x)</A></STRONG>
screens. Alternatively, one can save the return value
from <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> or <STRONG>setupterm</STRONG> to reuse in <STRONG>set_term</STRONG>.

The <STRONG><A HREF="tic.1m.html">tic(1m)</A></STRONG> and <STRONG><A HREF="infocmp.1m.html">infocmp(1m)</A></STRONG> programs use lookup tables for
the long and short names of terminfo capabilities, as well
as the corresponding names for termcap capabilities.
These are the corresponding names used for termcap de-
scriptions: boolcodes, numcodes, and strcodes.
- <STRONG>Terminal</STRONG> <STRONG>Type</STRONG>
+
+</PRE>
+<H3><a name="h3-Terminal-Type">Terminal Type</a></H3><PRE>
On initialization of the curses or terminfo interfaces,
<STRONG>setupterm</STRONG> copies the terminal name to the array <STRONG>ttytype</STRONG>.

The low-level terminfo interface is initialized using
<STRONG><A HREF="curs_terminfo.3x.html">curs_terminfo(3x)</A></STRONG>. The upper-level curses interface uses the
low-level terminfo interface, internally.
