3: .SH NAME
4: curses \(mi screen functions with `optimal' cursor motion
5: .SH DESCRIPTION
6: These routines give the user a method
7: of updating screens with reasonable optimization.
8: They keep an image of the current screen,
9: and the user sets up an image of a new one.
10: Then
11: .I refresh()
12: tells the routines to make the current screen look
13: like the new one.
14: The initialization routine
15: .I initscr()
16: must be called before any other routines
17: that deal with windows and screens.
18: The routine
19: .I endwin()
20: should be called before exiting.
21: .PP
22: To load the functions use the
23: .IR ld (1)
24: options
25: .BR \-lcurses\ \-ltermcap .
