<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an
application to define keycodes with their corresponding
control strings, so that the ncurses library will inter-
pret them just as it would the predefined codes in the
terminfo database.
If the given string is null, any existing definition for
1999-10-24 12:32:42 +08:00
the keycode is removed. Similarly, if the given keycode
is negative or zero, any existing string for the given
definition is removed.

</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
The keycode must be greater than zero, else ERR is
returned.
</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
These routines are specific to ncurses. They were not
supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
It is recommended that any code depending on them be con-
ditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
