| These functions are extensions to the curses library which do not fit |
| easily into other categories. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H3><a name="h3-curses_version">curses_version</a></H3><PRE> |
| Use <STRONG>curses_version</STRONG> to get the version number, including patch level of |
| the library, prefixed by "ncurses", e.g., |
| |
| <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> <STRONG>5.0.19991023</STRONG> |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H3><a name="h3-use_extended_names">use_extended_names</a></H3><PRE> |
| The <STRONG>use_extended_names</STRONG> function controls whether the calling |
| application is able to use user-defined or nonstandard 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><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE> |
| <STRONG>curses_version</STRONG> returns a pointer to static memory; you should not free |
| this in your application. |
| |
| <STRONG>use_extended_names</STRONG> returns the previous state, allowing you to save |
| this and restore it. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></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 conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION. |
