This page summarizes variables provided by the curses li- brary. A more complete description is given in the curs- es(3x) manual page.

After initializing curses, this variable contains the width of the screen, i.e., the number of columns. - ESCDELAY + ++ESCDELAY
This variable holds the number of milliseconds to wait af- ter reading an escape character, to distinguish between an individual escape character entered on the keyboard from escape sequences sent by cursor- and function-keys (see curses(3x). - LINES + ++LINES
After initializing curses, this variable contains the height of the screen, i.e., the number of lines. - TABSIZE + ++TABSIZE
This variable holds the number of columns used by the curses library when converting a tab character to spaces as it adds the tab to a window (see curs_addch(3x). - The Current Screen + ++The Current Screen
This implementation of curses uses a special window curscr to record its updates to the terminal screen. - The New Screen + ++The New Screen
This implementation of curses uses a special window newscr to hold updates to the terminal screen before applying them to curscr. - The Standard Screen + ++The Standard Screen
Upon initializing curses, a default window called stdscr, which is the size of the terminal screen, is created. Many curses functions use this window.-NOTES
