TAM (3T)
wgetpos()
kcodemap()
wgetc()
keypad()
(AT&T UNIX PC only ) TAM(3T)
Gets the current position (row, column) of the cursor
in the specified window ( wn ). Arguments are
wn and the pointers to the row, column position
of the cursor.
When passed an 8-bit value, kcodemap() returns a
pointer to the 7-bit escape sequence that maps
into that value.
Gets a single character from the specified window
( wn ). Wgetc(} is the window equivalent of
get char(). The input stream from any keyboard is
translated into UNIX PC keyboard equivalents.
Determines how function keys are returned in a
wget(} call. There are three states:
flag=O sets the 7-bit mode.
Function keys return escape sequences for a
wgetc() call.
flag= I sets the 8-bit mode.
Function keys return a single 8-bit character.
flag=2 sets the non-mapped mode.
Function keys return the code(s) generated by the
terminal used.
wsetmouse() Sets up the parameters associated with the mouse.
Wsetmouse() also takes a pointer to an umdata
structure, which determines the report conditions
for mouse motion and/or button changes. (See the
discussion in the window(7) manual page about
the umdata structure for specific usage.)
wreadmouse() Gets the mouse state, including the coordinates of
the mouse cursor and whether each of the three
mouse buttons is up or down. For a detailed
description of this information, see window(7).
The information is read from the input stream, so
this routine should be called only after a mouse
code is returned by wgetc(}. The structure is
defined in sys/mouse.h.
wprexec() This is called by the child process after a fork(}
and before an exec() to perform the appropriate
actions for passing a window to a child process.
"Appropriate action" varies from the bit map
screen to the remote terminal. On the bit map,
wprexec(} creates a new window and passes it as
stdin , stdout, and stderr. On remote terminals,
wprexec(} prepares the screen to be taken over by
the child by flushing output and resetting tty
modes.
