keybound(3X) keybound(3X)
keybound - return definition of keycode
#include <curses.h>
char * keybound(int keycode, int count);
This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an
application to determine the string which is defined in the terminfo
for specific keycodes.
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.
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.
