NAME
ungetch, unget_wch - push character back onto the input queue 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 ungetch(int ch); int unget_wch(const wchar_t wch); PARAMETERS
ch Is the single byte character to be put back in the input queue for the next call to getch(3XCURSES). wch Is the wide character to be put back in the input queue for the next call to get_wch(3XCURSES). DESCRIPTION
The ungetch() function pushes ch back onto the input queue until the next call to getch(). The unget_wch() function is similar to ungetch() except that ch can be of type wchar_t. RETURN VALUES
On success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR. ERRORS
None. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
erasechar, erasewchar, killchar, killwchar - return current ERASE or KILL characters 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> char erasechar(void); int erasewchar(wchar_t *ch); char killchar(void); int killwchar(wchar_t *ch); DESCRIPTION
The erasechar() function returns the current ERASE character from the tty driver. This character is used to delete the previous character during keyboard input. The returned value can be used when including deletion capability in interactive programs. The killchar() function is similar to erasechar(). It returns the current KILL character. The erasewchar() and killwchar() functions are similar to erasechar() and killchar() respectively, but store the ERASE or KILL character in the object pointed to by ch. PARAMETERS
ch Is a pointer to a location where a character may be stored. RETURN VALUES
For erasechar() and killchar(), the terminal's current ERASE or KILL character is returned. On success, the erasewchar() and killwchar() functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR. ATTRIBUTES
