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. +.. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBcurs_getch\fR(3), +\fBcurs_mouse\fR(3), +\fBcurs_print\fR(3), +\fBdefine_key\fR(3), +\fBdft_fgbg\fR(3), +\fBkeybound\fR(3), +\fBkeyok\fR(3), +\fBresizeterm\fR(3), +\fBwresize\fR(3). +.. +.SH AUTHOR +Thomas Dickey. +.\"# +.\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS +.\"# Local Variables: +.\"# mode:nroff +.\"# fill-column:79 +.\"# End: |
