-PDCurses Implementor's Guide
-============================
-
-Version 1.3 - 200?/??/?? - notes about official ports
-Version 1.2 - 2007/07/11 - added PDC_init_pair(), PDC_pair_content(),
- version history; removed pdc_atrtab
-Version 1.1 - 2007/06/06 - minor cosmetic change
-Version 1.0 - 2007/04/01 - initial revision
-
-This document is for those wishing to port PDCurses to a new platform,
-or just wanting to better understand how it works. Nothing here should
-be needed for application programming; for that, refer to PDCurses.txt,
-as built in doc/, or distributed as a file separate from this source
-package. This document assumes that you've read the user-level
-documentation and are very familiar with application-level curses
-programming.
-
-If you want to submit your port for possible inclusion into the main
-PDCurses distribution, please follow these guidelines:
-
- - Don't modify anything in the pdcurses directory or in other port
- directories. Don't modify curses.h or curspriv.h unless absolutely
- necessary. (And prefer modifying curspriv.h over curses.h.)
-
- - Use the same indentation style, naming and scope conventions as the
- existing code.
-
- - Release all your code to the public domain -- no copyright. Code
- under GPL, BSD, etc. will not be accepted.
-
-
-DATA STRUCTURES
----------------
-
-A port of PDCurses must provide acs_map[], a 128-element array of
-chtypes, with values laid out based on the Alternate Character Set of
-the VT100 (see curses.h). PDC_transform_line() must use this table; when
-it encounters a chtype with the A_ALTCHARSET flag set, and an A_CHARTEXT
-value in the range 0-127, it must render it using the A_CHARTEXT portion
-of the corresponding value from this table, instead of the original
-value. Also, values may be read from this table by apps, and passed
-through functions such as waddch(), which does no special processing on
-control characters (0-31 and 127) when the A_ALTCHARSET flag is set.
-Thus, any control characters used in acs_map[] should also have the
-A_ALTCHARSET flag set. Implementations should provide suitable values
-for all the ACS_ macros defined in curses.h; other values in the table
-should be filled with their own indices (e.g., acs_map['E'] == 'E'). The
-table can be either hardwired, or filled by PDC_scr_open(). Existing
-ports define it in pdcdisp.c, but this is not required.
-
-
-FUNCTIONS
----------
-
-A port of PDCurses must implement the following functions, with extern
-scope. These functions are traditionally divided into several modules,
-as indicated below; this division is not required (only the functions
-are), but may make it easier to follow for someone familiar with the
-existing ports.
-
-Any other functions you create as part of your implementation should
-have static scope, if possible. If they can't be static, they should be
-named with the "PDC_" prefix. This minimizes the risk of collision with
-an application's choices.
-
-Current PDCurses style also uses a single leading underscore with the
-name of any static function; and modified BSD/Allman-style indentation,
-approximately equivalent to "indent -kr -i8 -bl -bli0", with adjustments
-to keep every line under 80 columns. This isn't essential, but a
-consistent style helps readability.
-
-
-pdcdisp.c:
-----------
-
-void PDC_gotoyx(int y, int x);
-
-Move the physical cursor (as opposed to the logical cursor affected by
-wmove()) to the given location. This is called mainly from doupdate().
-In general, this function need not compare the old location with the new
-one, and should just move the cursor unconditionally.
-
-void PDC_transform_line(int lineno, int x, int len, const chtype *srcp);
-
-The core output routine. It takes len chtype entities from srcp (a
-pointer into curscr) and renders them to the physical screen at line
-lineno, column x. It must also translate characters 0-127 via acs_map[],
-if they're flagged with A_ALTCHARSET in the attribute portion of the
-chtype.
-
-
-pdcgetsc.c:
------------
-
-int PDC_get_columns(void);
-
-Returns the size of the screen in columns. It's used in resize_term() to
-set the new value of COLS. (Some existing implementations also call it
-internally from PDC_scr_open(), but this is not required.)
-
-int PDC_get_cursor_mode(void);
-
-Returns the size/shape of the cursor. The format of the result is
-unspecified, except that it must be returned as an int. This function is
-called from initscr(), and the result is stored in SP->orig_cursor,
-which is used by PDC_curs_set() to determine the size/shape of the
-cursor in normal visibility mode (curs_set(1)).
-
-int PDC_get_rows(void);
-
-Returns the size of the screen in rows. It's used in resize_term() to
-set the new value of LINES. (Some existing implementations also call it
-internally from PDC_scr_open(), but this is not required.)
-
-
-pdckbd.c:
----------
-
-bool PDC_check_key(void);
-
-Keyboard/mouse event check, called from wgetch(). Returns TRUE if
-there's an event ready to process. This function must be non-blocking.
-
-void PDC_flushinp(void);
-
-This is the core of flushinp(). It discards any pending key or mouse
-events, removing them from any internal queue and from the OS queue, if
-applicable.
-
-int PDC_get_key(void);
-
-Get the next available key, or mouse event (indicated by a return of
-KEY_MOUSE), and remove it from the OS' input queue, if applicable. This
-function is called from wgetch(). This function may be blocking, and
-traditionally is; but it need not be. If a valid key or mouse event
-cannot be returned, for any reason, this function returns -1. Valid keys
-are those that fall within the appropriate character set, or are in the
-list of special keys found in curses.h (KEY_MIN through KEY_MAX). When
-returning a special key code, this routine must also set SP->key_code to
-TRUE; otherwise it must set it to FALSE. If SP->return_key_modifiers is
-TRUE, this function may return modifier keys (shift, control, alt),
-pressed alone, as special key codes; if SP->return_key_modifiers is
-FALSE, it must not. If modifier keys are returned, it should only happen
-if no other keys were pressed in the meantime; i.e., the return should
-happen on key up. But if this is not possible, it may return the
-modifier keys on key down (if and only if SP->return_key_modifiers is
-TRUE).
-
-int PDC_modifiers_set(void);
-
-Called from PDC_return_key_modifiers(). If your platform needs to do
-anything in response to a change in SP->return_key_modifiers, do it
-here. Returns OK or ERR, which is passed on by the caller.
-
-int PDC_mouse_set(void);
-
-Called by mouse_set(), mouse_on(), and mouse_off() -- all the functions
-that modify SP->_trap_mbe. If your platform needs to do anything in
-response to a change in SP->_trap_mbe (for example, turning the mouse
-cursor on or off), do it here. Returns OK or ERR, which is passed on by
-the caller.
-
-void PDC_set_keyboard_binary(bool on);
-
-Set keyboard input to "binary" mode. If you need to do something to keep
-the OS from processing ^C, etc. on your platform, do it here. TRUE turns
-the mode on; FALSE reverts it. This function is called from raw() and
-noraw().
-
-
-pdcscrn.c:
-----------
-
-bool PDC_can_change_color(void);
-
-Returns TRUE if init_color() and color_content() give meaningful
-results, FALSE otherwise. Called from can_change_color().
-
-int PDC_color_content(short color, short *red, short *green, short *blue);
-
-The core of color_content(). This does all the work of that function,
-except checking for values out of range and null pointers.
-
-int PDC_init_color(short color, short red, short green, short blue);
-
-The core of init_color(). This does all the work of that function,
-except checking for values out of range.
-
-void PDC_init_pair(short pair, short fg, short bg);
-
-The core of init_pair(). This does all the work of that function, except
-checking for values out of range. The values passed to this function
-should be returned by a call to PDC_pair_content() with the same pair
-number. PDC_transform_line() should use the specified colors when
-rendering a chtype with the given pair number.
-
-int PDC_pair_content(short pair, short *fg, short *bg);
-
-The core of pair_content(). This does all the work of that function,
-except checking for values out of range and null pointers.
-
-void PDC_reset_prog_mode(void);
-
-The non-portable functionality of reset_prog_mode() is handled here --
-whatever's not done in _restore_mode(). In current ports: In OS/2, this
-sets the keyboard to binary mode; in Win32, it enables or disables the
-mouse pointer to match the saved mode; in others it does nothing.
-
-void PDC_reset_shell_mode(void);
-
-The same thing, for reset_shell_mode(). In OS/2 and Win32, it restores
-the default console mode; in others it does nothing.
-
-int PDC_resize_screen(int nlines, int ncols);
-
-This does the main work of resize_term(). It may respond to non-zero
-parameters, by setting the screen to the specified size; to zero
-parameters, by setting the screen to a size chosen by the user at
-runtime, in an unspecified way (e.g., by dragging the edges of the
-window); or both. It may also do nothing, if there's no appropriate
-action for the platform.
-
-void PDC_restore_screen_mode(int i);
-
-Called from _restore_mode() in kernel.c, this function does the actual
-mode changing, if applicable. Currently used only in DOS and OS/2.
-
-void PDC_save_screen_mode(int i);
-
-Called from _save_mode() in kernel.c, this function saves the actual
-screen mode, if applicable. Currently used only in DOS and OS/2.
-
-void PDC_scr_close(void);
-
-The platform-specific part of endwin(). It may restore the image of the
-original screen saved by PDC_scr_open(), if the PDC_RESTORE_SCREEN
-environment variable is set; either way, if using an existing terminal,
-this function should restore it to the mode it had at startup, and move
-the cursor to the lower left corner. (The X11 port does nothing.)
-
-void PDC_scr_free(void);
-
-Frees the memory for SP allocated by PDC_scr_open(). Called by
-delscreen().
-
-int PDC_scr_open(int argc, char **argv);
-
-The platform-specific part of initscr(). It's actually called from
-Xinitscr(); the arguments, if present, correspond to those used with
-main(), and may be used to set the title of the terminal window, or for
-other, platform-specific purposes. (The arguments are currently used
-only in X11.) PDC_scr_open() must allocate memory for SP, and must
-initialize acs_map[] (unless it's preset) and several members of SP,
-including lines, cols, mouse_wait, orig_attr (and if orig_attr is TRUE,
-orig_fore and orig_back), mono, _restore and _preserve. (Although SP is
-used the same way in all ports, it's allocated here in order to allow
-the X11 port to map it to a block of shared memory.) If using an
-existing terminal, and the environment variable PDC_RESTORE_SCREEN is
-set, this function may also store the existing screen image for later
-restoration by PDC_scr_close().
-
-
-pdcsetsc.c:
------------
-
-int PDC_curs_set(int visibility);
-
-Called from curs_set(). Changes the appearance of the cursor -- 0 turns
-it off, 1 is normal (the terminal's default, if applicable, as
-determined by SP->orig_cursor), and 2 is high visibility. The exact
-appearance of these modes is not specified.
-
-
-pdcutil.c:
-----------
-
-void PDC_beep(void);
-
-Emits a short audible beep. If this is not possible on your platform,
-you must set SP->audible to FALSE during initialization (i.e., from
-PDC_scr_open() -- not here); otherwise, set it to TRUE. This function is
-called from beep().
-
-void PDC_napms(int ms);
-
-This is the core delay routine, called by napms(). It pauses for about
-(the X/Open spec says "at least") ms milliseconds, then returns. High
-degrees of accuracy and precision are not expected (though desirable, if
-you can achieve them). More important is that this function gives back
-the process' time slice to the OS, so that PDCurses idles at low CPU
-usage.
-
-const char *PDC_sysname(void);
-
-Returns a short string describing the platform, such as "DOS" or "X11".
-This is used by longname(). It must be no more than 100 characters; it
-should be much, much shorter (existing platforms use no more than 5).
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-The following functions are implemented in the platform directories, but
-are accessed directly by apps. Refer to the user documentation for their
-descriptions:
-
-
-pdcclip.c:
-----------
-
-int PDC_clearclipboard(void);
-int PDC_freeclipboard(char *contents);
-int PDC_getclipboard(char **contents, long *length);
-int PDC_setclipboard(const char *contents, long length);
-
-
-pdckbd.c:
----------
-
-unsigned long PDC_get_input_fd(void);
-
-
-pdcsetsc.c:
------------
-
-int PDC_set_blink(bool blinkon);
-void PDC_set_title(const char *title);
