| <STRONG>curses_version</STRONG>, <STRONG>use_extended_names</STRONG> - miscellaneous curses |
| extensions |
| |
| |
| </PRE> |
| <H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE> |
| <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG> |
| |
| <STRONG>const</STRONG> <STRONG>char</STRONG> <STRONG>*</STRONG> <STRONG>curses_version(void);</STRONG> |
| <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>use_extended_names(bool</STRONG> <STRONG>enable);</STRONG> |

| <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE> |
| These functions are extensions to the curses library which |
| do not fit easily into other categories. |
| |
| Use <EM>curses</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>version()</EM> to get the version number, including |
| patch level of the library, e.g., <STRONG>5.0.19991023</STRONG> |
| |
| The <EM>use</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>extended</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>names()</EM> function controls whether the |
| calling application is able to use user-defined or non- |
| standard names which may be compiled into the terminfo |
| description, i.e., via the terminfo or termcap interfaces. |
| Normally these names are available for use, since the |
| essential decision is made by using the <STRONG>-x</STRONG> option of <STRONG>tic</STRONG> |
| to compile extended terminal definitions. However you can |
| disable this feature to ensure compatibility with other |
| implementations of curses. |
| |
| |
| </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. |
