<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
<STRONG>keyok</STRONG> - enable or disable a keycode
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
<STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;curses.h&gt;</STRONG>
<STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>keyok(int</STRONG> <STRONG>keycode,</STRONG> <STRONG>bool</STRONG> <STRONG>enable);</STRONG>
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an
application to disable specific keycodes, rather than use
the <EM>keypad</EM> function to disable all keycodes. Keys that
have been disabled can be reenabled.
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
The keycode must be greater than zero, else ERR is
returned. If it does not correspond to a defined key,
then ERR is returned. If the <EM>enable</EM> parameter is true,
then the key must have been disabled, and vice versa.
Otherwise, the function returns OK.
</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.
