The current attributes of a window apply to + all characters that are written into the window with <STRONG>wadd-</STRONG> + <STRONG>ch</STRONG>, <STRONG>waddstr</STRONG> and <STRONG>wprintw</STRONG>. Attributes are a property of the + character, and move with the character through any + scrolling and insert/delete line/character operations. To + the extent possible, they are displayed as appropriate + modifications to the graphic rendition of characters put + on the screen. + + The routine <STRONG>attrset</STRONG> sets the current attributes of the + given window to <EM>attrs</EM>. The routine <STRONG>attroff</STRONG> turns off the + named attributes without turning any other attributes on + or off. The routine <STRONG>attron</STRONG> turns on the named attributes + without affecting any others. The routine <STRONG>standout</STRONG> is the + same as <STRONG>attron(A_STANDOUT)</STRONG>. The routine <STRONG>standend</STRONG> is the + same as <STRONG>attrset(A_NORMAL)</STRONG> or <STRONG>attrset(0)</STRONG>, that is, it turns + off all attributes. + + The <STRONG>attrset</STRONG> and related routines do not affect the at- + tributes used when erasing portions of the window. See + <STRONG><A HREF="curs_bkgd.3x.html">curs_bkgd(3x)</A></STRONG> for functions which modify the attributes + used for erasing and clearing. + + The routine <STRONG>color_set</STRONG> sets the current color of the given + window to the foreground/background combination described + by the color_pair_number. The parameter opts is reserved + for future use, applications must supply a null pointer. + + The routine <STRONG>wattr_get</STRONG> returns the current attribute and + color pair for the given window; <STRONG>attr_get</STRONG> returns the cur- + rent attribute and color pair for <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>. The remaining + <STRONG>attr_</STRONG>* functions operate exactly like the corresponding + <STRONG>attr</STRONG>* functions, except that they take arguments of type + <STRONG>attr_t</STRONG> rather than <STRONG>int</STRONG>. + + The routine <STRONG>chgat</STRONG> changes the attributes of a given number + of characters starting at the current cursor location of + <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG>. It does not update the cursor and does not per- + form wrapping. A character count of -1 or greater than + the remaining window width means to change attributes all + the way to the end of the current line. The <STRONG>wchgat</STRONG> func- + tion generalizes this to any window; the <STRONG>mvwchgat</STRONG> function + does a cursor move before acting. In these functions, the + color argument is a color-pair index (as in the first ar- + gument of <EM>init</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>pair</EM>, see <STRONG><A HREF="curs_color.3x.html">curs_color(3x)</A></STRONG>). The <STRONG>opts</STRONG> argu- + ment is not presently used, but is reserved for the future + (leave it <STRONG>NULL</STRONG>). + + <STRONG>Attributes</STRONG> + The following video attributes, defined in <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG>, can + be passed to the routines <STRONG>attron</STRONG>, <STRONG>attroff</STRONG>, and <STRONG>attrset</STRONG>, or + OR'd with the characters passed to <STRONG>addch</STRONG>. + + + <STRONG>A_NORMAL</STRONG> Normal display (no highlight) + <STRONG>A_STANDOUT</STRONG> Best highlighting mode of the terminal. + <STRONG>A_UNDERLINE</STRONG> Underlining + <STRONG>A_REVERSE</STRONG> Reverse video + <STRONG>A_BLINK</STRONG> Blinking + <STRONG>A_DIM</STRONG> Half bright + <STRONG>A_BOLD</STRONG> Extra bright or bold + <STRONG>A_PROTECT</STRONG> Protected mode + <STRONG>A_INVIS</STRONG> Invisible or blank mode + <STRONG>A_ALTCHARSET</STRONG> Alternate character set + <STRONG>A_CHARTEXT</STRONG> Bit-mask to extract a character + <STRONG>COLOR_PAIR(</STRONG><EM>n</EM><STRONG>)</STRONG> Color-pair number <EM>n</EM> + + The following macro is the reverse of <STRONG>COLOR_PAIR(</STRONG><EM>n</EM><STRONG>)</STRONG>: + + <STRONG>PAIR_NUMBER(</STRONG><EM>attrs</EM>) Returns the pair number associated + with the <STRONG>COLOR_PAIR(</STRONG><EM>n</EM><STRONG>)</STRONG> attribute. + + The return values of many of these routines are not mean- + ingful (they are implemented as macro-expanded assignments + and simply return their argument). The SVr4 manual page + claims (falsely) that these routines always return <STRONG>1</STRONG>. + + +</PRE> +<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE> + Note that <STRONG>attroff</STRONG>, <STRONG>wattroff</STRONG>, <STRONG>attron</STRONG>, <STRONG>wattron</STRONG>, <STRONG>attrset</STRONG>, + <STRONG>wattrset</STRONG>, <STRONG>standend</STRONG> and <STRONG>standout</STRONG> may be macros. + + <STRONG>COLOR_PAIR</STRONG> values can only be OR'd with attributes if the + pair number is less than 256. The alternate functions + such as <STRONG>color_set</STRONG> can pass a color pair value directly. + However, ncurses ABI 4 and 5 simply OR this value within + the alternate functions. You must use ncurses ABI 6 to + support more than 256 color pairs. + + +</PRE> +<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE> + These functions are supported in the XSI Curses standard, + Issue 4. The standard defined the dedicated type for + highlights, <STRONG>attr_t</STRONG>, which is not defined in SVr4 curses. + The functions taking <STRONG>attr_t</STRONG> arguments are not supported + under SVr4. + + The XSI Curses standard states that whether the tradition- + al functions <STRONG>attron</STRONG>/<STRONG>attroff</STRONG>/<STRONG>attrset</STRONG> can manipulate at- + tributes other than <STRONG>A_BLINK</STRONG>, <STRONG>A_BOLD</STRONG>, <STRONG>A_DIM</STRONG>, <STRONG>A_REVERSE</STRONG>, + <STRONG>A_STANDOUT</STRONG>, or <STRONG>A_UNDERLINE</STRONG> is "unspecified". Under this + implementation as well as SVr4 curses, these functions + correctly manipulate all other highlights (specifically, + <STRONG>A_ALTCHARSET</STRONG>, <STRONG>A_PROTECT</STRONG>, and <STRONG>A_INVIS</STRONG>). + + XSI Curses added the new entry points, <STRONG>attr_get</STRONG>, <STRONG>attr_on</STRONG>, + <STRONG>attr_off</STRONG>, <STRONG>attr_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>wattr_on</STRONG>, <STRONG>wattr_off</STRONG>, <STRONG>wattr_get</STRONG>, <STRONG>wat-</STRONG> + <STRONG>tr_set</STRONG>. These are intended to work with a new series of + highlight macros prefixed with <STRONG>WA_</STRONG>. + + Older versions of this library did not force an update of + the screen when changing the attributes.
