The global variables defined for CURSES are shown in Table 4-1 “Definitions of Global Variables”. Table 4-1 Definitions of Global Variables | Constant | Description |
|---|
| COLORS | Number of colors supported by terminal | | COLOR_PAIRS | Number of color pairs supported by terminal | | COLS | Number of columns supported by terminal | | LINES | Number of lines supported by terminal | | boolcodes[ ] | termcap capability names | | boolfnames[ ] | Full C names | | boolnames[ ] | terminfo capability names | | cur_term | Current terminal | | curscr | Current screen image | | numcodes[ ] | termcap capability codes | | numfnames[ ] | Full C names | | numfnames[ ] | terminfo capability codes | | stdscr | Standard screen supplied by initscr() | | strcodes[ ] | termcap capability names | | strfnames[ ] | Full C names | | strnames[ ] | terminfo capability names | | ttytype | Terminal type
|
Implementation Considerations | |
The curscr, sdscr, COLS, and LINES constants are identical to XPG/3.
The COLORS, COLOR_PAIRS, boolcodes[], boolfnames[],
boolnames[], numcodes[], numfnames[], numnames[],
strcodes[], strfnames[], and strnames[] constants are UNIX System V implementations. Portability | |
The COLORS, COLOR_PAIRS, boolcodes[ ], boolfnames[ ],
boolnames[ ], numcodes[ ], numfnames[ ], numnames[ ],
strcodes[ ], strfnames[ ], and strnames[ ] constants conform to UNIX System V.
The curscr, sdscr, COLS, and LINES constants conform to HP-UX, UNIX System V, and XPG/3.
The cur_term and ttytype constants conform to HP-UX
and UNIX System V. |
