Name

def_prog_mode, def_shell_mode − save terminal modes

Syntax

int def_prog_mode()

int def_shell_mode()

Description

The def_prog_mode routine saves the current terminal modes as the program if the terminal is running under curses. The stored terminal modes are used by the reset_prog_mode() routine. This function is used when the user makes a temporary exit from curses.

The routine def_shell_mode saves the current terminal modes as the shell if the terminal is not running under curses. The stored terminal modes are used by the reset_shell_mode() routine.

Both routines are called automatically by initscr(.).

Return Values

The def_prog_mode and def_shell_mode functions return OK on success and ERR on error.
