The <B>cbreak</B> routine - disables line buffering and erase/kill character-process- - ing (interrupt and flow control characters are unaf- - fected), making characters typed by the user immediately - available to the program. The <B>nocbreak</B> routine returns - the terminal to normal (cooked) mode. - - Initially the terminal may or may not be in <B>cbreak</B> mode, - as the mode is inherited; therefore, a program should call - <B>cbreak</B> or <B>nocbreak</B> explicitly. Most interactive programs - using <B>curses</B> set the <B>cbreak</B> mode. Note that <B>cbreak</B> over- - rides <B>raw</B>. [See <B><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">curs_getch(3x)</A></B> for a discussion of how - these routines interact with <B>echo</B> and <B>noecho</B>.] - - The <B>echo</B> and <B>noecho</B> routines control whether characters - typed by the user are echoed by <B>getch</B> as they are typed. - Echoing by the tty driver is always disabled, but ini- - tially <B>getch</B> is in echo mode, so characters typed are - echoed. Authors of most interactive programs prefer to do - their own echoing in a controlled area of the screen, or - not to echo at all, so they disable echoing by calling - <B>noecho</B>. [See <B><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">curs_getch(3x)</A></B> for a discussion of how these - routines interact with <B>cbreak</B> and <B>nocbreak</B>.] - - The <B>halfdelay</B> routine is used for half-delay mode, which - is similar to <B>cbreak</B> mode in that characters typed by the - user are immediately available to the program. However, - after blocking for <I>tenths</I> tenths of seconds, ERR is - returned if nothing has been typed. The value of <B>tenths</B> - must be a number between 1 and 255. Use <B>nocbreak</B> to leave - half-delay mode. - - If the <B>intrflush</B> option is enabled, (<I>bf</I> is <B>TRUE</B>), when an - interrupt key is pressed on the keyboard (interrupt, - break, quit) all output in the tty driver queue will be - flushed, giving the effect of faster response to the - interrupt, but causing <B>curses</B> to have the wrong idea of - what is on the screen. Disabling (<I>bf</I> is <B>FALSE</B>), the - option prevents the flush. The default for the option is - inherited from the tty driver settings. The window argu- - ment is ignored. - - The <B>keypad</B> option enables the keypad of the user's termi- - nal. If enabled (<I>bf</I> is <B>TRUE</B>), the user can press a func- - tion key (such as an arrow key) and <B>wgetch</B> returns a sin- - gle value representing the function key, as in <B>KEY_LEFT</B>. - If disabled (<I>bf</I> is <B>FALSE</B>), <B>curses</B> does not treat function - keys specially and the program has to interpret the escape - sequences itself. If the keypad in the terminal can be - turned on (made to transmit) and off (made to work - locally), turning on this option causes the terminal key- - pad to be turned on when <B>wgetch</B> is called. The default - value for keypad is false. - - Initially, whether the terminal returns 7 or 8 significant - bits on input depends on the control mode of the tty - driver [see <B><A HREF="termio.7.html">termio(7)</A></B>]. To force 8 bits to be returned, - invoke <B>meta</B>(<I>win</I>, <B>TRUE</B>); this is equivalent, under POSIX, - to setting the CS8 flag on the terminal. To force 7 bits - to be returned, invoke <B>meta</B>(<I>win</I>, <B>FALSE</B>); this is equiva- - lent, under POSIX, to setting the CS8 flag on the termi- - nal. The window argument, <I>win</I>, is always ignored. If the - terminfo capabilities <B>smm</B> (meta_on) and <B>rmm</B> (meta_off) are - defined for the terminal, <B>smm</B> is sent to the terminal when - <B>meta</B>(<I>win</I>, <B>TRUE</B>) is called and <B>rmm</B> is sent when <B>meta</B>(<I>win</I>, - <B>FALSE</B>) is called. - - The <B>nodelay</B> option causes <B>getch</B> to be a non-blocking call. - If no input is ready, <B>getch</B> returns <B>ERR</B>. If disabled (<I>bf</I> - is <B>FALSE</B>), <B>getch</B> waits until a key is pressed. - - While interpreting an input escape sequence, <B>wgetch</B> sets a - timer while waiting for the next character. If <B>notime-</B> - <B>out(</B><I>win</I>, <B>TRUE</B>) is called, then <B>wgetch</B> does not set a - timer. The purpose of the timeout is to differentiate - between sequences received from a function key and those - typed by a user. - - The <B>raw</B> and <B>noraw</B> routines place the terminal into or out - of raw mode. Raw mode is similar to <B>cbreak</B> mode, in that - characters typed are immediately passed through to the - user program. The differences are that in raw mode, the - interrupt, quit, suspend, and flow control characters are - all passed through uninterpreted, instead of generating a - signal. The behavior of the BREAK key depends on other - bits in the tty driver that are not set by <B>curses</B>. - - When the <B>noqiflush</B> routine is used, normal flush of input - and output queues associated with the <B>INTR</B>, <B>QUIT</B> and <B>SUSP</B> - characters will not be done [see <B><A HREF="termio.7.html">termio(7)</A></B>]. When <B>qiflush</B> - is called, the queues will be flushed when these control - characters are read. You may want to call <B>noqiflush()</B> in - a signal handler if you want output to continue as though - the interrupt had not occurred, after the handler exits. - - The <B>timeout</B> and <B>wtimeout</B> routines set blocking or non- - blocking read for a given window. If <I>delay</I> is negative, - blocking read is used (<I>i</I>.<I>e</I>., waits indefinitely for - input). If <I>delay</I> is zero, then non-blocking read is used - (<I>i</I>.<I>e</I>., read returns <B>ERR</B> if no input is waiting). If <I>delay</I> - is positive, then read blocks for <I>delay</I> milliseconds, and - returns <B>ERR</B> if there is still no input. Hence, these rou- - tines provide the same functionality as <B>nodelay</B>, plus the - additional capability of being able to block for only - <I>delay</I> milliseconds (where <I>delay</I> is positive). - - The <B>curses</B> library does ``line-breakout optimization'' by - looking for typeahead periodically while updating the - screen. If input is found, and it is coming from a tty, - the current update is postponed until <B>refresh</B> or <B>doupdate</B> - is called again. This allows faster response to commands - typed in advance. Normally, the input FILE pointer passed - to <B>newterm</B>, or <B>stdin</B> in the case that <B>initscr</B> was used, - will be used to do this typeahead checking. The <B>typeahead</B> - routine specifies that the file descriptor <I>fd</I> is to be - used to check for typeahead instead. If <I>fd</I> is -1, then no - typeahead checking is done. - - -</PRE> -<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE> - All routines that return an integer return <B>ERR</B> upon fail- - ure and OK (SVr4 specifies only "an integer value other - than <B>ERR</B>") upon successful completion, unless otherwise - noted in the preceding routine descriptions. - - -</PRE> -<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE> - These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, - Issue 4. - - The ncurses library obeys the XPG4 standard and the his- - torical practice of the AT&T curses implementations, in - that the echo bit is cleared when curses initializes the - terminal state. BSD curses differed from this slightly; - it left the echo bit on at initialization, but the BSD <B>raw</B> - call turned it off as a side-effect. For best portabil- - ity, set echo or noecho explicitly just after initializa- - tion, even if your program remains in cooked mode. - - -</PRE> -<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE> - Note that <B>echo</B>, <B>noecho</B>, <B>halfdelay</B>, <B>intrflush</B>, <B>meta</B>, <B>node-</B> - <B>lay</B>, <B>notimeout</B>, <B>noqiflush</B>, <B>qiflush</B>, <B>timeout</B>, and <B>wtimeout</B> - may be macros. - - The <B>noraw</B> and <B>nocbreak</B> calls follow historical practice in - that they attempt to restore to normal (`cooked') mode - from raw and cbreak modes respectively. Mixing raw/noraw - and cbreak/nocbreak calls leads to tty driver control - states that are hard to predict or understand; it is not - recommended. - - -</PRE> -<H2>SEE ALSO</H2><PRE> - <B><A HREF="ncurses.3x.html">curses(3x)</A></B>, <B><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">curs_getch(3x)</A></B>, <B><A HREF="curs_initscr.3x.html">curs_initscr(3x)</A></B>, <B><A HREF="termio.7.html">termio(7)</A></B> - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</PRE> -<HR> -<ADDRESS> -Man(1) output converted with -<a href="http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/man2html.html">man2html</a> -</ADDRESS> -</BODY> -</HTML> |
