<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
<STRONG>initscr</STRONG> is normally the first <STRONG>curses</STRONG> routine to call when
|
|
|
|
initializing a program. A few special routines sometimes
|
|
|
|
need to be called before it; these are <STRONG>slk_init</STRONG>, <STRONG>filter</STRONG>,
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>ripoffline</STRONG>, <STRONG>use_env</STRONG>. For multiple-terminal applications,
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>newterm</STRONG> may be called before <STRONG>initscr</STRONG>.
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The initscr code determines the terminal type and initial-
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
izes all <STRONG>curses</STRONG> data structures. <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> also causes the
|
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
|
|
|
first call to <STRONG>refresh</STRONG> to clear the screen. If errors oc-
|
|
|
|
cur, <STRONG>initscr</STRONG> writes an appropriate error message to stan-
|
|
|
|
dard error and exits; otherwise, a pointer is returned to
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>.
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
A program that outputs to more than one terminal should
|
|
|
|
use the <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> routine for each terminal instead of
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>initscr</STRONG>. A program that needs to inspect capabilities, so
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
it can continue to run in a line-oriented mode if the ter-
|
|
|
|
minal cannot support a screen-oriented program, would also
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
use <STRONG>newterm</STRONG>. The routine <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> should be called once
|
|
|
|
for each terminal. It returns a variable of type <STRONG>SCREEN</STRONG> <STRONG>*</STRONG>
|
|
|
|
which should be saved as a reference to that terminal.

<STRONG>newterm</STRONG>'s arguments are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> the <EM>type</EM> of the terminal to be used in place of <STRONG>$TERM</STRONG>,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> a file pointer for output to the terminal, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> another file pointer for input from the terminal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the <EM>type</EM> parameter is <STRONG>NULL</STRONG>, <STRONG>$TERM</STRONG> will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The program must also call <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> for each terminal being
|
|
|
|
used before exiting from <STRONG>curses</STRONG>. If <STRONG>newterm</STRONG> is called
|
|
|
|
more than once for the same terminal, the first terminal
|
|
|
|
referred to must be the last one for which <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> is
|
|
|
|
called.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A program should always call <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> before exiting or es-
|
|
|
|
caping from <STRONG>curses</STRONG> mode temporarily. This routine
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> restores tty modes,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> moves the cursor to the lower left-hand corner of the
|
|
|
|
screen and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> resets the terminal into the proper non-visual mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Calling <STRONG>refresh</STRONG> or <STRONG>doupdate</STRONG> after a temporary escape caus-
|
|
|
|
es the program to resume visual mode.
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
The <STRONG>isendwin</STRONG> routine returns <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> if <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> has been
|
|
|
|
called without any subsequent calls to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>, and <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG>
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
The <STRONG>set_term</STRONG> routine is used to switch between different
|
|
|
|
terminals. The screen reference <STRONG>new</STRONG> becomes the new cur-
|
|
|
|
rent terminal. The previous terminal is returned by the
|
|
|
|
routine. This is the only routine which manipulates
|
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
|
|
|
<STRONG>SCREEN</STRONG> pointers; all other routines affect only the cur-
|
|
|
|
rent terminal.
|
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
|
|
|
The <STRONG>delscreen</STRONG> routine frees storage associated with the
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>SCREEN</STRONG> data structure. The <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> routine does not do
|
|
|
|
this, so <STRONG>delscreen</STRONG> should be called after <STRONG>endwin</STRONG> if a par-
|
|
|
|
ticular <STRONG>SCREEN</STRONG> is no longer needed.

ncurses 5.9 - patch 20140524
+ fix typo in ncurses manpage for the NCURSES_NO_MAGIC_COOKIE
environment variable.
+ improve discussion of input-echoing in curs_getch.3x
+ clarify discussion in curs_addch.3x of wrapping.
+ modify parametrized.h to make fln non-padded.
+ correct several entries which had termcap-style padding used in
terminfo: adm21, aj510, alto-h19, att605-pc, x820 -TD
+ correct syntax for padding in some entries: dg211, h19 -TD
+ correct ti924-8 which had confused padding versus octal escapes -TD
+ correct padding in sbi entry -TD
+ fix an old bug in the termcap emulation; "%i" was ignored in tparm()
because the parameters to be incremented were already on the internal
stack (report by Corinna Vinschen).
+ modify tic's "-c" option to take into account the "-C" option to
activate additional checks which compare the results from running
tparm() on the terminfo expressions versus the translated termcap
expressions.
+ modify tic to allow it to read from FIFOs (report by Matthieu Fronton,
cf: 20120324).
> patches by Nicolas Boulenguez:
+ explicit dereferences to suppress some style warnings.
+ when c_varargs_to_ada.c includes its header, use double quotes
instead of <>.
+ samples/ncurses2-util.adb: removed unused with clause. The warning
was removed by an obsolete pragma.
+ replaced Unreferenced pragmas with Warnings (Off). The latter,
available with older GNATs, needs no configure test. This also
replaces 3 untested Unreferenced pragmas.
+ simplified To_C usage in trace handling. Using two parameters allows
some basic formatting, and avoids a warning about security with some
compiler flags.
+ for generated Ada sources, replace many snippets with one pure
package.
+ removed C_Chtype and its conversions.
+ removed C_AttrType and its conversions.
+ removed conversions between int, Item_Option_Set, Menu_Option_Set.
+ removed int, Field_Option_Set, Item_Option_Set conversions.
+ removed C_TraceType, Attribute_Option_Set conversions.
+ replaced C.int with direct use of Eti_Error, now enumerated. As it
was used in a case statement, values were tested by the Ada compiler
to be consecutive anyway.
+ src/Makefile.in: remove duplicate stanza
+ only consider using a project for shared libraries.
+ style. Silent gnat-4.9 warning about misplaced "then".
+ generate shared library project to honor ADAFLAGS, LDFLAGS.
