       The following are declared as functions, and may also be defined as macros:

	      int	 del_curterm(TERMINAL *oterm);
	      int	 putp(char *const str);
	      int	 restartterm(char *term, int fildes, int *errret);
	      TERMINAL * set_curterm(TERMINAL *nterm);
	      int	 setupterm(char *term, int fildes, int *errret);
	      int	 tgetent(char *bp, char *const name);
	      int	 tgetflag(char id[2]);
	      int	 tgetnum(char id[2]);
	      char *	 tgetstr(char id[2], char **area);
	      char *	 tgoto(char *const cap, int col, int row);
	      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);
	      int	 tputs(char *const str, int affcnt, int (*putfunc)(int));
