NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       keybound - return definition of keycode

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <curses.h>

       char * keybound(int keycode, int count);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       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.

RETURN VALUE    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  keycode  must  be greater than zero, else NULL is returned.  If it
       does not correspond to a defined key, then NULL	is  returned.	Otherwise,
 the function returns a string, which must be freed by the caller.

PORTABILITY    [Toc]    [Back]

       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.
