Terminal Type

+       A  terminal  description  begins with one or more terminal

Terminfo Names

Terminfo Names

        In addition to the variables, <term.h> also defines a sym-
        bol  for each terminfo capability long name.  These are in
        terms of the symbol CUR, which is defined
 
-       #define CUR cur_term->type.
+       #define CUR ((TERMTYPE *)(cur_term))->
 
        These symbols provide a faster method of accessing termin-

+       loaded into memory.
