ENHANCED CURSES

NAME

attr_get, attr_off, attr_on, attr_set, color_set, wattr_get, wattr_off, wattr_on, wattr_set, wcolor_set — window attribute control functions

SYNOPSIS

#include <curses.h>

int attr_get(attr_t *attrs, short *color, void *opts);

int attr_off(attr_t attrs, void *opts);

int attr_on(attr_t attrs, void *opts);

int attr_set(attr_t attrs, short *color, void *opts);

int color_set(short color);

int wattr_get(WINDOW *win, attr_t *attrs, short *color, void *opts);

int wattr_off(WINDOW *win, attr_t attrs, void *opts);

int wattr_on(WINDOW *win, attr_t attrs, void *opts);

int wattr_set(WINDOW *win, attr_t attrs, short *color, void *opts);

int wcolor_set(WINDOW *win, short color);

DESCRIPTION

These functions manipulate the attributes and color of the window rendition of the current or specified window. 

The attr_get() and wattr_get() functions obtain the current rendition of a window. 

The attr_off() and wattr_off() functions turn off attrs in the current or specified window without affecting any others. 

The attr_on() and wattr_on() functions turn on attrs in the current or specified window without affecting any others. 

The attr_set() and wattr_set() functions set the window rendition of the current or specified window to attrs and color. 

The color_set() and wcolor_set() functions set the window color of the current or specified window to color. 

The opts argument is reswerved for definition in a future edition of this document. Currently, the application must provide a null pointer as opts. 

RETURN VALUE

These functions always return OK. 

ERRORS

No errors are defined.
