| | tigetflag, tigetnum, tigetstr, tparm - return the value of a terminfo capability |
SYNOPSIS
| |
#include <term.h> int tigetflag(char *capname); |
| | int tigetnum(char *capname); |
| | char *tigetstr(char *capname); |
| | char *tparm(char *cap, long p1, long p2, long p3, long p4, long p5, long p6, long p7, long p8, long p9); |
| |
-
capname
- Is the name of the terminfo capability for which the value is
required.
-
cap
- Is a pointer to a string capability.
-
p1...p9
- Are the parameters to be instantiated.
|
| |
The tigetflag(), tigetnum(), and tigetstr() functions return values for terminfo capabilities passed to them.
The following null-terminated arrays contain the capnames, the termcap codes and full C names for each of the terminfo variables.
| |
char *boolnames, *boolcodes, *boolfnames
char *numnames, *numcodes, *numfnames
char *strnames, *strcodes, *strfnames
|
The tparm() function instantiates a parameterized string using nine arguments. The string is suitable for output processing by tputs().
|
| |
On success, the tigetflg(), tigetnum(), and tigetstr() functions return the specified terminfo capability.
tigetflag() returns -1 if capname is not a Boolean capability.
tigetnum() returns -2 if capname is not a numeric capability.
tigetstr() returns (char *)-1 if capname is not a string capability.
On success, the tparm() function returns cap in a static buffer with the parameterization resolved. Otherwise, it returns a null pointer.
