SIGNBIT(3) Linux Programmer's Manual SIGNBIT(3)NAME
signbit - test sign of a real floating-point number
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
int signbit(x);
Link with -lm.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
signbit():
_ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
DESCRIPTION
signbit() is a generic macro which can work on all real floating-point types. It returns a nonzero value if the value of x has its sign
bit set.
This is not the same as x < 0.0, because IEEE 754 floating point allows zero to be signed. The comparison -0.0 < 0.0 is false, but sign-
bit(-0.0) will return a nonzero value.
NaNs and infinities have a sign bit.
RETURN VALUE
The signbit() macro returns nonzero if the sign of x is negative; otherwise it returns zero.
ERRORS
No errors occur.

I'm looking for finer granularity than the 20 ANSI escape sequence screen modes. What I'd like to do is have the terminal increase it's own height when I have to show the user a long menu.
Platform is Cygwin 64 running over Win 7 Pro.

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.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it
