The def_prog_mode and def_shell_mode routines are used to save terminal modes.

Syntax

   #include <curses.h>



   int def_prog_mode();

   int def_shell_mode();

Return Values

OK

Successful completion.

ERR

An error occurred.

Description

The def_prog_mode() and def_shell_mode() routines save the current terminal modes as "program" (within CURSES) or "shell" (outside CURSES). These are used by the reset_prog_mode() and reset_shell_mode() routines. The modes are saved automatically by the initscr(), newterm(), and setupterm() routines.

These routines can also be used outside CURSES with terminfo routines.

Implementation Considerations

Identical to XPG/3
