-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The following routines give low-level access to various \fBcurses\fR
-capabilities. Theses routines typically are used inside library
-routines.
-
-The \fBdef_prog_mode\fR and \fBdef_shell_mode\fR routines save the
-current terminal modes as the "program" (in \fBcurses\fR) or "shell"
-(not in \fBcurses\fR) state for use by the \fBreset_prog_mode\fR and
-\fBreset_shell_mode\fR routines. This is done automatically by
-\fBinitscr\fR. There is one such save area for each screen context
-allocated by \fBnewterm()\fR.
-
-The \fBreset_prog_mode\fR and \fBreset_shell_mode\fR routines restore
-the terminal to "program" (in \fBcurses\fR) or "shell" (out of
-\fBcurses\fR) state. These are done automatically by \fBendwin\fR
-and, after an \fBendwin\fR, by \fBdoupdate\fR, so they normally are
-not called.
-
-The \fBresetty\fR and \fBsavetty\fR routines save and restore the
-state of the terminal modes. \fBsavetty\fR saves the current state in
-a buffer and \fBresetty\fR restores the state to what it was at the
-last call to \fBsavetty\fR.
-
-The \fBgetsyx\fR routine returns the current coordinates of the virtual screen
-cursor in \fIy\fR and \fIx\fR. If \fBleaveok\fR is currently \fBTRUE\fR, then
-\fB-1\fR,\fB-1\fR is returned. If lines have been removed from the top of the
-screen, using \fBripoffline\fR, \fIy\fR and \fIx\fR include these lines;
-therefore, \fIy\fR and \fIx\fR should be used only as arguments for
-\fBsetsyx\fR.
-
-The \fBsetsyx\fR routine sets the virtual screen cursor to
-\fIy\fR, \fIx\fR. If \fIy\fR and \fIx\fR are both \fB-1\fR, then
-\fBleaveok\fR is set. The two routines \fBgetsyx\fR and \fBsetsyx\fR
-are designed to be used by a library routine, which manipulates
-\fBcurses\fR windows but does not want to change the current position
-of the program's cursor. The library routine would call \fBgetsyx\fR
-at the beginning, do its manipulation of its own windows, do a
-\fBwnoutrefresh\fR on its windows, call \fBsetsyx\fR, and then call
-\fBdoupdate\fR.
-
-The \fBripoffline\fR routine provides access to the same facility that
-\fBslk_init\fR [see \fBcurs_slk\fR(3X)] uses to reduce the size of the
-screen. \fBripoffline\fR must be called before \fBinitscr\fR or
-\fBnewterm\fR is called. If \fIline\fR is positive, a line is removed
-from the top of \fBstdscr\fR; if \fIline\fR is negative, a line is
-removed from the bottom. When this is done inside \fBinitscr\fR, the
-routine \fBinit\fR (supplied by the user) is called with two
-arguments: a window pointer to the one-line window that has been
-allocated and an integer with the number of columns in the window.
-Inside this initialization routine, the integer variables \fBLINES\fR
-and \fBCOLS\fR (defined in \fB<curses.h>\fR) are not guaranteed to be
-accurate and \fBwrefresh\fR or \fBdoupdate\fR must not be called. It
-is allowable to call \fBwnoutrefresh\fR during the initialization
-routine.
-
-\fBripoffline\fR can be called up to five times before calling \fBinitscr\fR or
-\fBnewterm\fR.
-
-The \fBcurs_set\fR routine sets the cursor state is set to invisible,
-normal, or very visible for \fBvisibility\fR equal to \fB0\fR,
-\fB1\fR, or \fB2\fR respectively. If the terminal supports the
-\fIvisibility\fR requested, the previous \fIcursor\fR state is
-returned; otherwise, \fBERR\fR is returned.
-
-The \fBnapms\fR routine is used to sleep for \fIms\fR milliseconds.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-Except for \fBcurs_set\fR, these routines always return \fBOK\fR.
-\fBcurs_set\fR returns the previous cursor state, or \fBERR\fR if the
-requested \fIvisibility\fR is not supported.
-.SH NOTES
-Note that \fBgetsyx\fR is a macro, so \fB&\fR is not necessary before
-the variables \fIy\fR and \fIx\fR.
-
-Older SVr4 man pages warn that the return value of \fBcurs_set\fR "is currently
-incorrect". This implementation gets it right, but it may be unwise to count
-on the correctness of the return value anywhere else.
-
-Both ncurses and SVr4 will call \fBcurs_set\fR in \fBendwin\fR
-if \fBcurs_set\fR
-has been called to make the cursor other than normal, i.e., either
-visible or very visible.
-There is no way for ncurses to determine the initial cursor state to
-restore that.
-.SH PORTABILITY
-The functions \fBsetsyx\fR and \fBgetsyx\fR are not described in the XSI
-Curses standard, Issue 4. All other functions are as described in XSI Curses.
-
-The SVr4 documentation describes \fBsetsyx\fR and \fBgetsyx\fR as having return
-type int. This is misleading, as they are macros with no documented semantics
-for the return value.
