1.1 root 1: .TH CURSES 3X "19 January 1983"
2: .UC 4
3: .SH NAME
4: curses \- screen functions with ``optimal'' cursor motion
5: .SH SYNOPSIS
6: .B cc
7: [ flags ] files
8: .B \-lcurses \-ltermcap
9: [ libraries ]
10: .SH DESCRIPTION
11: These routines give the user a method of updating screens with reasonable
12: optimization. They keep an image of the current screen,
13: and the user sets up an image of a new one. Then the
14: .I refresh()
15: tells the routines to make the current screen look like the new one.
16: In order to initialize the routines, the routine
17: .I initscr()
18: must be called before any of the other routines that deal with windows and
19: screens are used. The routine
20: .I endwin()
21: should be called before exiting.
