RETURN VALUE

NOTES

-       All of these interfaces are provided  as  macros  and  functions.   The
-       macros   are   suppressed   (and  only  the  functions  provided)  when
-       NCURSES_OPAQUE is defined.  The standard forms such as  getyx  must  be
-       implemented  as  macros,  and  (in  this implementation) are defined in
-       terms of the functions described here, to avoid  reliance  on  internal
-       details of the WINDOW structure.
