Hi fpmurphy,
Thank you for your information.
But the core header file of ncurses doesn't contain a key something like
Alt combination keys.
I mean that header file includes all the keys it supports. So if ncurses supports Alt combination key, that file should include some key identifying
Alt combination key.
Is my understanding correct?
