NAME

       meta - enable/disable meta keys

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib 
       -R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int meta(WINDOW *win, bool bf);

PARAMETERS

       win		       Is an ignored parameter.

       bf		       Is a Boolean expression.

DESCRIPTION

       Whether	a  terminal  returns  7  or 8 significant bits initially depends on the  control mode of the terminal driver.  The meta() function
       forces the number of bits to be returned by  getch(3XCURSES) to be 7 (if bf is FALSE) or 8 (if bf is  TRUE).

       If the program handling the data can only pass 7-bit characters or strips the 8th bit, 8 bits cannot be handled.

       If the terminfo capabilities smm (meta_on) and rmm (meta_off) are defined for the terminal, smm is sent to  the	terminal   when  meta(win,
       TRUE) is called, and rmm is sent when meta(win, FALSE) is called.

       This function is useful when extending the non-text command set in applications where the META key is used.

RETURN VALUES

       On success, the meta() function returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.

ERRORS

       None.

NAME

       syncok, wcursyncup, wsyncdown, wsyncup - synchronize window with its parents or children

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L	/usr/xpg4/lib 
	-R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int syncok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);

       void wcursyncup(WINDOW *win);

       void wsyncdown(WINDOW *win);

       void wsyncup(WINDOW *win);

PARAMETERS

       win    Is a pointer to a window.

       bf     Is a Boolean expression.

DESCRIPTION

       The syncok() function uses the value of bf to determine	whether or not the window win's ancestors are implicitly touched whenever there is
       a change to win. If bf is TRUE, this touching occurs. If bf is FALSE, it does not occur. The initial value for bf is FALSE.

       The wcursyncup() function moves the cursor in win's ancestors  to match its position in win.

       The wsyncdown() function touches win if any of its ancestors have been touched.

       The wsyncup() function touches all ancestors of win.

RETURN VALUES

       On success, the syncok() function returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.

       The other functions do not return a value.

ERRORS

       None.
