keyok(3X)keyok(3X)NAME
keybound - return definition of keycode
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
char * keybound(int keycode, int count);
DESCRIPTION
This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an application to determine the string which is defined in the terminfo for spe-
cific keycodes.
RETURN VALUE
The keycode parameter must be greater than zero, else NULL is returned. If it does not correspond to a defined key, then NULL is returned.
The count parameter is used to allow the application to iterate through multiple definitions, counting from zero. When successful, the
function returns a string which must be freed by the caller.
PORTABILITY
These routines are specific to ncurses. 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.

define_key - define a keycode
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int define_key(const char *definition, int keycode);
DESCRIPTION
This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an application to define keycodes with their corresponding control strings, so that
the ncurses library will interpret them just as it would the predefined codes in the terminfo database.
If the given string is null, any existing definition for the keycode is removed. Similarly, if the given keycode is negative or zero, any
existing string for the given definition is removed.
RETURN VALUE
The keycode must be greater than zero, and the string non-null, otherwise ERR is returned. ERR may also be returned if there is insuffi-
cient memory to allocate the data to store the definition. If no error is detected, OK is returned.
PORTABILITY
These routines are specific to ncurses. 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.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
