- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto - Fix for default mtree style - Update libelf - Importing libexecinfo - Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr - build.sh: Replace params with show-params. This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added. This new target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of printing it on the console. - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org) get getservbyport() out of the inner loop Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions extract and use capabilities from a terminal capability
|
|
database.
|
|
They exist as wrappers around equivalent
|
|
.Xr terminfo 3
|
|
functions, which new code should use.
|
|
These are low level routines; see
|
|
.Xr curses 3
|
|
for a higher level package.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetent
|
|
function calls
|
|
.Fn setupterm
|
|
and configures
|
|
.Va PC ,
|
|
.Va UP
|
|
and
|
|
.Va BC .
|
|
Only
|
|
.Va PC
|
|
is actually used internally.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetent
|
|
function returns \-1 if none of the
|
|
.Nm terminfo
|
|
data base files could be opened,
|
|
0 if the terminal name given does not match an entry,
|
|
and 1 if all goes well.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa bp
|
|
argument is not used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetnum
|
|
function gets the numeric value of the capability
|
|
.Fa id ,
|
|
returning \-1 if it is not given for the terminal.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetflag
|
|
function returns 1 if the specified capability is present in the terminal's
|
|
entry, 0 if it is not.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetstr
|
|
function returns the string value of the capability
|
|
.Fa id .
|
|
This is a
|
|
.Xr terminfo 5
|
|
string and not a
|
|
.Nm termcap
|
|
string;
|
|
as such it should only be processed by
|
|
.Fn tgoto .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgetstr
|
|
function returns
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if the capability was not found.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa area
|
|
argument is unused.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tgoto
|
|
function returns a cursor addressing string decoded from
|
|
.Fa cm
|
|
to go to column
|
|
.Fa destcol
|
|
in line
|
|
.Fa destline ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
on error conditions such as out of memory.
|
|
Please note that
|
|
.Fn tgoto
|
|
can return an incomplete value on a malformed input sequence.
|
|
Historically
|
|
.Fn tgoto
|
|
used to return
|
|
.Dq OOPS
|
|
on those conditions, so newer programs should now be checking the return
|
|
value.

|
.Fn t_*
