You also need to link your code +with libXCurses. You may need to link with the following libraries under +X11R5: + Xaw Xmu Xt X11 + +or, under X11R6: + Xaw Xmu Xt X11 SM ICE Xext + +You can run "xcurses-config --libs" to show the link parameters for your +system. If using dynamic linking, on some systems, "-lXCurses" suffices. + +By calling Xinitscr() rather than initscr(), you can pass your program +name and resource overrides to PDCurses. The program name is used as the +title of the X window, and for defining X resources specific to your +program. + + +Interaction with stdio +---------------------- + +Be aware that curses programs that expect to have a normal tty +underneath them will be very disappointed! Output directed to stdout +will go to the xterm that invoked the PDCurses application, or to the +console if not invoked directly from an xterm. Similarly, stdin will +expect its input from the same place as stdout. + + +X Resources +----------- + +PDCurses for X11 recognizes the following resources: + + lines + cols + normalFont + italicFont + pointer + pointerForeColor + pointerBackColor + cursorColor + textCursor + colorBlack + colorRed + colorGreen + colorYellow + colorBlue + colorMagenta + colorCyan + colorWhite + colorBoldBlack + colorBoldRed + colorBoldGreen + colorBoldYellow + colorBoldBlue + colorBoldMagenta + colorBoldCyan + colorBoldWhite + bitmap + pixmap + translations + shmmin + borderWidth + borderColor + clickPeriod + doubleClickPeriod + composeKey + +lines: Specifies the number of lines the "screen" will have. + Directly equates to LINES. + There is no theoretical maximum. + The minimum value must be 2. + Default: 24 + +cols: Specifies the number of columns the "screen" will have. + Directly equates to COLS. + There is no theoretical maximum. + The minimum value must be 2. + Default: 80 + +normalFont: The name of a fixed width font. + Default: 7x13 + +italicFont: The name of a fixed width font to be used for + characters with A_ITALIC attributes. Must have the + same cell size as normalFont. + Default: 7x13 (obviously not an italic font) + +pointer: The name of a valid pointer cursor. + Default: xterm + +pointerForeColor: The foreground color of the pointer. + Default: black + +pointerBackColor: The background color of the pointer. + Default: white + +textCursor: The alignment of the text cursor; horizontal or vertical. + Default: horizontal + +colorBlack: The color of the COLOR_BLACK attribute. + Default: Black + +colorRed: The color of the COLOR_RED attribute. + Default: red3 + +colorGreen: The color of the COLOR_GREEN attribute. + Default: green3 + +colorYellow: The color of the COLOR_YELLOW attribute. + Default: yellow3 + +colorBlue: The color of the COLOR_BLUE attribute. + Default: blue3 + +colorMagenta: The color of the COLOR_MAGENTA attribute. + Default: magenta3 + +colorCyan: The color of the COLOR_CYAN attribute. + Default: cyan3 + +colorWhite: The color of the COLOR_WHITE attribute. + Default: Grey + +colorBoldBlack: COLOR_BLACK combined with A_BOLD. + Default: grey40 + +colorBoldRed: COLOR_RED combined with A_BOLD. + Default: red1 + +colorBoldGreen: COLOR_GREEN combined with A_BOLD. + Default: green1 + +colorBoldYellow: COLOR_YELLOW combined with A_BOLD. + Default: yellow1 + +colorBoldBlue: COLOR_BLUE combined with A_BOLD. + Default: blue1 + +colorBoldMagenta: COLOR_MAGENTA combined with A_BOLD. + Default: magenta1 + +colorBoldCyan: COLOR_CYAN combined with A_BOLD. + Default: cyan1 + +colorBoldWhite: COLOR_WHITE combined with A_BOLD. + Default: White + +bitmap: The name of a valid bitmap file of depth 1 (black and white) + used for the application's icon. The file is an X bitmap. + Default: a 32x32 or 64x64 pixmap depending on the + window manager + +pixmap: The name of a valid pixmap file of any depth + supported by the window manager (color) for the + application's icon, The file is an X11 pixmap. This + resource is only available if the libXpm package has + been installed (most systems have this by default). + This resource overrides the "bitmap" resource. + Default: none, uses default bitmap above + +translations: Translations enable the user to customize the action + that occurs when a key, combination of keys, or a + button is pressed. The translations are similar to + those used by xterm. + Defaults: + <Key>: XCursesKeyPress() + <KeyUp>: XCursesKeyPress() + <BtnDown>: XCursesButton() + <BtnUp>: XCursesButton() + <BtnMotion>: XCursesButton() + + The most useful action for KeyPress translations is + string(). The argument to the string() action can be + either a string or a hex representation of a + character; e.g., string(0x1b) will send the ASCII + escape character to the application; string("[11~") + will send [ 1 1 ~ , as separate keystrokes. + +shmmin: On most systems, there are two Unix kernel parameters + that determine the allowable size of a shared memory + segment. These parameters are usually something like + SHMMIN and SHMMAX. To use shared memory, a program + must allocate a segment of shared memory that is + between these two values. Usually these values are + like 1 for SHMMIN and some large number for SHMMAX. + Sometimes the Unix kernel is configured to have a + value of SHMMIN that is bigger than the size of one + of the shared memory segments that libXCurses uses. + On these systems an error message like: + + Cannot allocate shared memory for SCREEN: Invalid argument + + will result. To overcome this problem, this resource + should be set to the kernel value for SHMMIN. This + ensures that a shared memory segment will always be + bigger than the kernel value for SHMMIN (and + hopefully less than SHMMAX!) + + Default: 0 + +borderColor: The color of the border around the screen. + Default: black + +borderWidth: The width in pixels of the border around the screen. + Default: 0 + +clickPeriod: The period (in milliseconds) between a button + press and a button release that determines if a click + of a button has occurred. + Default: 100 + +doubleClickPeriod: The period (in milliseconds) between two button + press events that determines if a double click + of a button has occurred. + Default: 200 + +composeKey: The name of the X key that defines the "compose key", + which is used to enter characters in the Latin-1 + character set above 0xA0. (See "Compose Keys for + Latin-1" below.) This is used only when PDCurses is + built without XIM support. While in compose mode, the + text cursor will appear as a hollow rectangle. + Default: Multi_key + + +Using Resources +--------------- + +All applications have a top-level class name of "XCurses". If Xinitscr() +is used, it sets an application's top-level widget name. (Otherwise the +name defaults to "PDCurses".) + +Examples for app-defaults or .Xdefaults: + +! +! resources for XCurses class of programs +! +XCurses*lines: 30 +XCurses*cols: 80 +XCurses*normalFont: 9x13 +XCurses*bitmap: /tmp/xcurses.xbm +XCurses*pointer: top_left_arrow +! +! resources for testcurs - XCurses +! +testcurs.colorRed: orange +testcurs.colorBlack: midnightblue +testcurs.lines: 25 +*testcurs.Translations: #override \n \ + <Key>F12: string(0x1b) string("[11~") \n +! +! resources for THE - XCurses +! +! resources with the * wildcard can be overridden by a parameter passed +! to initscr() +! +the*normalFont: 9x15 +the*lines: 40 +the*cols: 86 +the*pointer: xterm +the*pointerForeColor: white +the*pointerBackColor: black +! +! resources with the . format can not be overridden by a parameter passed +! to Xinitscr() +! +the.bitmap: /home/mark/the/the64.xbm +the.pixmap: /home/mark/the/the64.xpm + +Resources may also be passed as parameters to the Xinitscr() function. +Parameters are strings in the form of switches; e.g., to set the color +"red" to "indianred", and the number of lines to 30, the string passed +to Xinitscr would be: "-colorRed indianred -lines 30" + + +Compose Keys for Latin-1 +------------------------ + +When built without XIM support, PDCurses for X11 provides its own, +limited compose key system for Latin-1 characters. The available +combinations are listed here. For a given character, any of the +combinations shown in the last column may be used. To generate a +character, press the "compose" key followed by one of the pairs of +keystrokes. Where no key is evident, the spacebar is used. Thus, to +generate the NO-BREAK SPACE, press the "compose" key followed by two +hits of the spacebar. + +With a typical modern X server, you can get many more compose key +combinations by using XIM instead. Configure PDCurses with --enable-xim +to use XIM support. + +This document is encoded in UTF-8. + ++----+-----+---+---------------------------------+---------------------------+ +|Hex | Dec |Chr| Description ISO 10646-1:1993(E) | Compose key combinations | ++----+-----+---+---------------------------------+---------------------------+ +| A0 | 160 | | NO-BREAK SPACE | | +| A1 | 161 | ¡ | INVERTED EXCLAMATION MARK | ! !! | +| A2 | 162 | ¢ | CENT SIGN | c| |c c/ c$ C$ C| | +| A3 | 163 | £ | POUND SIGN | L- L$ L= l- l$ l= |-| +| A4 | 164 | ¤ | CURRENCY SIGN | xo ox XO g$ | +| A5 | 165 | ¥ | YEN SIGN | =y y= =Y Y= Y- y$ y-| +| A6 | 166 | ¦ | BROKEN BAR | | || vb VB |^ | +| A7 | 167 | § | SECTION SIGN | SO SS s!
