SDL Considerations
==================
There are no special requirements to use PDCurses for SDL -- all
PDCurses-compatible code should work fine. (In fact, you can even build
against the Windows console pdcurses.dll, and then swap in the SDL
pdcurses.dll.) Nothing extra is needed beyond the base SDL library.
However, there are some optional special features, described here.
The SDL ports operate in one of two ways, depending on whether or not
they were built with WIDE=Y:
8-bit mode
----------
The font is a simple BMP, 32 characters wide by 8 characters tall,
preferably with a palette. (BMPs without palettes still work, but in
that case, no attributes will be available, nor will the cursor work.)
The first entry in the palette (usually black) is treated as the
background color; the last entry (usually white) is treated as the
foreground. These are changed or made transparent as appropriate; any
other colors in the palette are passed through unchanged. So -- although
a one-bit depth is sufficient for a normal font -- you could redraw some
characters as multi-colored tiles.
The font must be monospaced. The size of each character is derived by
dividing the width of the BMP by 32 and the height by 8. There is no
constraint on the dimensions.
As provided in the default font and expected by acs_map[], the font is
in Code Page 437 form. But you can of course use any layout if you're
not relying on correct values for the ACS_* macros.
The font can be set via the environment variable PDC_FONT. If it's not
set, PDCurses looks for a file named "pdcfont.bmp" in the current
directory at the time of initscr(). If neither is found, it uses the
built-in default font encoded in deffont.h.
16-bit mode
-----------
Instead of a BMP, PDC_FONT points to a TrueType font. Only true
monospaced fonts work well. The font can be set at compile time via
PDC_FONT_PATH, and/or at runtime via pdc_ttffont. The environment
variable PDC_FONT_SIZE is also available to control the font size (also
as a compile-time define, and at runtime as pdc_font_size.) The
character mapping for chtypes is 16-bit Unicode (the Basic Multilingual
Plane).
The default font (if not redefined) is based on the OS:
- Windows: C:/Windows/Fonts/lucon.ttf
- Mac: /Library/Fonts/Courier New.ttf
- Other: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeMono.ttf
Backgrounds
-----------
PDCurses for SDL supports an optional background image BMP. This is used
whenever start_color() has not been called (see the ptest demo for an
example), or when use_default_colors() has been called after
start_color(), and the background color of a pair has been set to -1
(see ozdemo, worm, and rain for examples). The usage parallels that of
ncurses in an appropriate terminal (e.g., Gnome Terminal). The image is
tiled to cover the PDCurses window, and can be any size or depth.
As with the font, you can point to a location for the background via the
environment variable PDC_BACKGROUND; "pdcback.bmp" is the fallback.
(There is no default background.)
Icons
-----
The icon (used with SDL_WM_SetIcon() -- not used for the executable
file) can be set via the environment variable PDC_ICON, and falls back
to "pdcicon.bmp", and then to the built-in icon from deficon.h. The
built-in icon is the PDCurses logo, as seen in ../x11/little_icon.xbm.
The SDL docs say that the icon must be 32x32, at least for use with MS
Windows.
If pdc_screen is preinitialized (see below), PDCurses does not attempt
to set the icon.
Screen size
-----------
The default screen size is 80x25 characters (whatever size they may be),
but you can override this via the environment variables PDC_COLS and/or
PDC_LINES. (Some other ports use COLS and LINES; this is not done here
because those values are, or should be, those of the controlling
terminal, and PDCurses for SDL is independent of the terminal.) If
pdc_screen is preinitialized (see below), these are ignored.
Integration with SDL
--------------------
If you want to go further, you can mix PDCurses and SDL functions. (Of
course this is extremely non-portable!) To aid you, there are several
external variables and functions specific to the SDL ports; you could
include pdcsdl.h, or just add the declarations you need in your code:
PDCEX SDL_Surface *pdc_screen, *pdc_font, *pdc_icon, *pdc_back;
PDCEX int pdc_sheight, pdc_swidth, pdc_yoffset, pdc_xoffset;
PDCEX void PDC_update_rects(void);
PDCEX void PDC_retile(void);
The SDL2 port adds:
PDCEX SDL_Window *pdc_window;
pdc_screen is the main surface, unless it's preset before initscr(). In
SDL1, pdc_screen is created by SDL_SetVideoMode(); in SDL2, pdc_window
is the main window, created by SDL_CreateWindow(), and pdc_screen is set
by SDL_GetWindowSurface(pdc_window). (See sdltest.c for examples.) You
can perform normal SDL operations on this surface, but PDCurses won't
respect them when it updates. (For that, see PDC_retile().) As an
alternative, you can preinitialize this surface before calling
initscr(). In that case, you can use pdc_sheight, pdc_swidth,
pdc_yoffset and/or pdc_xoffset (q.v.) to confine PDCurses to only a
specific area of the surface, reserving the rest for other SDL
operations. If you preinitialize pdc_screen, you'll have to close it
yourself; PDCurses will ignore resize events, and won't try to set the
icon. Also note that if you preinitialize pdc_screen, it need not be the
display surface.
pdc_font (in 8-bit mode), pdc_icon, and pdc_back are the SDL_surfaces
for the font, icon, and background, respectively. You can set any or all
of them before initscr(), and thus override any of the other ways to set
them. But note that pdc_icon will be ignored if pdc_screen is preset.
pdc_sheight and pdc_swidth are the dimensions of the area of pdc_screen
to be used by PDCurses. You can preset them before initscr(); if either
is not set, it defaults to the full screen size minus the x or y offset,
as appropriate.
pdc_xoffset and pdc_yoffset are the x and y offset for the area of
pdc_screen to be used by PDCurses. See the sdltest demo for an example.
PDC_retile() makes a copy of pdc_screen, then tiles it with the
background image, if any. The resulting surface is used as the
background for transparent character cells. PDC_retile() is called from
initscr() and resize_term(). However, you can also use it at other
times, to take advantage of the way it copies pdc_screen: Draw some SDL
stuff; call PDC_retile(); do some curses stuff -- it will use whatever
was on pdc_screen as the background. Then you can erase the curses
screen, do some more SDL stuff, and call PDC_retile() again to make a
new background. (If you don't erase the curses screen, it will be
incorporated into the background when you call PDC_retile().) But this
only works if no background image is set.
PDC_update_rects() is how the screen actually gets updated. For
performance reasons, when drawing, PDCurses for SDL maintains a table of
rectangles that need updating, and only updates (by calling this
function) during getch(), napms(), or when the table gets full.
Normally, this is sufficient; but if you're pausing in some way other
than by using napms(), and you're not doing keyboard checks, you may get
an incomplete update. If that happens, you can call PDC_update_rects()
manually.
Interaction with stdio
----------------------
As with X11, it's a bad idea to mix curses and stdio calls. (In fact,
that's true for PDCurses on any platform; but especially these two,
which don't run under terminals.) Depending on how SDL is built, stdout
and stderr may be redirected to files.

X11 Considerations
==================
PDCurses for X11 uses the System V IPC shared memory facility, along
with sockets, to share data between the curses program and the child
process created to manage the X stuff.
When compiling your application, you need to include the \<curses.h\> or
\<xcurses.h\> that comes with PDCurses. 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
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. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### 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. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-medium-o-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-medium-o-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### boldFont
The name of a fixed width font to be used for characters with A_BOLD
attributes. Must have the same cell size as normalFont. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### 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
### cursorColor
### 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.

The XCursesExit() function is now called automatically via atexit().
(Multiple calls to it are OK, so you don't need to remove it if you've
already added it for previous versions of PDCurses.)
XCURSES is no longer defined automatically, but need not be defined,

Usage
-----
There are no special requirements to use PDCurses for SDL -- all
PDCurses-compatible code should work fine. (In fact, you can even build
against the Windows console pdcurses.dll, and then swap in the SDL
pdcurses.dll.) Nothing extra is needed beyond the base SDL library.
However, there are some optional special features, described here.
The SDL ports operate in one of two ways, depending on whether or not
they were built with WIDE=Y:
### 8-bit mode
The font is a simple BMP, 32 characters wide by 8 characters tall,
preferably with a palette. (BMPs without palettes still work, but in
that case, no attributes will be available, nor will the cursor work.)
The first entry in the palette (usually black) is treated as the
background color; the last entry (usually white) is treated as the
foreground. These are changed or made transparent as appropriate; any
other colors in the palette are passed through unchanged. So -- although
a one-bit depth is sufficient for a normal font -- you could redraw some
characters as multi-colored tiles.
The font must be monospaced. The size of each character is derived by
dividing the width of the BMP by 32 and the height by 8. There is no
constraint on the dimensions.
As provided in the default font and expected by acs_map[], the font is
in Code Page 437 form. But you can of course use any layout if you're
not relying on correct values for the ACS_* macros.
The font can be set via the environment variable PDC_FONT. If it's not
set, PDCurses looks for a file named "pdcfont.bmp" in the current
directory at the time of initscr(). If neither is found, it uses the
built-in default font encoded in deffont.h.
### 16-bit mode
Instead of a BMP, PDC_FONT points to a TrueType font. Only true
monospaced fonts work well. The font can be set at compile time via
PDC_FONT_PATH, and/or at runtime via pdc_ttffont. The environment
variable PDC_FONT_SIZE is also available to control the font size (also
as a compile-time define, and at runtime as pdc_font_size.) The
character mapping for chtypes is 16-bit Unicode (the Basic Multilingual
Plane).
The default font (if not redefined) is based on the OS:
- Windows: C:/Windows/Fonts/lucon.ttf
- Mac: /Library/Fonts/Courier New.ttf
- Other: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeMono.ttf
Backgrounds
-----------
PDCurses for SDL supports an optional background image BMP. This is used
whenever start_color() has not been called (see the ptest demo for an
example), or when use_default_colors() has been called after
start_color(), and the background color of a pair has been set to -1
(see ozdemo, worm, and rain for examples). The usage parallels that of
ncurses in an appropriate terminal (e.g., Gnome Terminal). The image is
tiled to cover the PDCurses window, and can be any size or depth.
As with the font, you can point to a location for the background via the
environment variable PDC_BACKGROUND; "pdcback.bmp" is the fallback.
(There is no default background.)
Icons
-----
The icon (used with SDL_WM_SetIcon() -- not used for the executable
file) can be set via the environment variable PDC_ICON, and falls back
to "pdcicon.bmp", and then to the built-in icon from deficon.h. The
built-in icon is the PDCurses logo, as seen in ../x11/little_icon.xbm.
The SDL docs say that the icon must be 32x32, at least for use with MS
Windows.
If pdc_screen is preinitialized (see below), PDCurses does not attempt
to set the icon.
Screen size
-----------
The default screen size is 80x25 characters (whatever size they may be),
but you can override this via the environment variables PDC_COLS and/or
PDC_LINES. (Some other ports use COLS and LINES; this is not done here
because those values are, or should be, those of the controlling
terminal, and PDCurses for SDL is independent of the terminal.) If
pdc_screen is preinitialized (see below), these are ignored.
Integration with SDL
--------------------
If you want to go further, you can mix PDCurses and SDL functions. (Of
course this is extremely non-portable!) To aid you, there are several
external variables and functions specific to the SDL ports; you could
include pdcsdl.h, or just add the declarations you need in your code:
PDCEX SDL_Surface *pdc_screen, *pdc_font, *pdc_icon, *pdc_back;
PDCEX int pdc_sheight, pdc_swidth, pdc_yoffset, pdc_xoffset;
PDCEX void PDC_update_rects(void);
PDCEX void PDC_retile(void);
The SDL2 port adds:
PDCEX SDL_Window *pdc_window;
pdc_screen is the main surface, unless it's preset before initscr(). In
SDL1, pdc_screen is created by SDL_SetVideoMode(); in SDL2, pdc_window
is the main window, created by SDL_CreateWindow(), and pdc_screen is set
by SDL_GetWindowSurface(pdc_window). (See sdltest.c for examples.) You
can perform normal SDL operations on this surface, but PDCurses won't
respect them when it updates. (For that, see PDC_retile().) As an
alternative, you can preinitialize this surface before calling
initscr(). In that case, you can use pdc_sheight, pdc_swidth,
pdc_yoffset and/or pdc_xoffset (q.v.) to confine PDCurses to only a
specific area of the surface, reserving the rest for other SDL
operations. If you preinitialize pdc_screen, you'll have to close it
yourself; PDCurses will ignore resize events, and won't try to set the
icon. Also note that if you preinitialize pdc_screen, it need not be the
display surface.
pdc_font (in 8-bit mode), pdc_icon, and pdc_back are the SDL_surfaces
for the font, icon, and background, respectively. You can set any or all
of them before initscr(), and thus override any of the other ways to set
them. But note that pdc_icon will be ignored if pdc_screen is preset.
pdc_sheight and pdc_swidth are the dimensions of the area of pdc_screen
to be used by PDCurses. You can preset them before initscr(); if either
is not set, it defaults to the full screen size minus the x or y offset,
as appropriate.
pdc_xoffset and pdc_yoffset are the x and y offset for the area of
pdc_screen to be used by PDCurses. See the sdltest demo for an example.
PDC_retile() makes a copy of pdc_screen, then tiles it with the
background image, if any. The resulting surface is used as the
background for transparent character cells. PDC_retile() is called from
initscr() and resize_term(). However, you can also use it at other
times, to take advantage of the way it copies pdc_screen: Draw some SDL
stuff; call PDC_retile(); do some curses stuff -- it will use whatever
was on pdc_screen as the background. Then you can erase the curses
screen, do some more SDL stuff, and call PDC_retile() again to make a
new background. (If you don't erase the curses screen, it will be
incorporated into the background when you call PDC_retile().) But this
only works if no background image is set.
PDC_update_rects() is how the screen actually gets updated. For
performance reasons, when drawing, PDCurses for SDL maintains a table of
rectangles that need updating, and only updates (by calling this
function) during getch(), napms(), or when the table gets full.
Normally, this is sufficient; but if you're pausing in some way other
than by using napms(), and you're not doing keyboard checks, you may get
an incomplete update. If that happens, you can call PDC_update_rects()
manually.
Interaction with stdio
----------------------
As with X11, it's a bad idea to mix curses and stdio calls. (In fact,
that's true for PDCurses on any platform; but especially these two,
which don't run under terminals.) Depending on how SDL is built, stdout
and stderr may be redirected to files.

effect unless WIDE=Y is also set.
Usage
-----
There are no special requirements to use PDCurses for SDL -- all
PDCurses-compatible code should work fine. (In fact, you can even build
against the Windows console pdcurses.dll, and then swap in the SDL
pdcurses.dll.) Nothing extra is needed beyond the base SDL library.
However, there are some optional special features, described here.
The SDL ports operate in one of two ways, depending on whether or not
they were built with WIDE=Y:
### 8-bit mode
The font is a simple BMP, 32 characters wide by 8 characters tall,
preferably with a palette. (BMPs without palettes still work, but in
that case, no attributes will be available, nor will the cursor work.)
The first entry in the palette (usually black) is treated as the
background color; the last entry (usually white) is treated as the
foreground. These are changed or made transparent as appropriate; any
other colors in the palette are passed through unchanged. So -- although
a one-bit depth is sufficient for a normal font -- you could redraw some
characters as multi-colored tiles.
The font must be monospaced. The size of each character is derived by
dividing the width of the BMP by 32 and the height by 8. There is no
constraint on the dimensions.
As provided in the default font and expected by acs_map[], the font is
in Code Page 437 form. But you can of course use any layout if you're
not relying on correct values for the ACS_* macros.
The font can be set via the environment variable PDC_FONT. If it's not
set, PDCurses looks for a file named "pdcfont.bmp" in the current
directory at the time of initscr(). If neither is found, it uses the
built-in default font encoded in deffont.h.
### 16-bit mode
Instead of a BMP, PDC_FONT points to a TrueType font. Only true
monospaced fonts work well. The font can be set at compile time via
PDC_FONT_PATH, and/or at runtime via pdc_ttffont. The environment
variable PDC_FONT_SIZE is also available to control the font size (also
as a compile-time define, and at runtime as pdc_font_size.) The
character mapping for chtypes is 16-bit Unicode (the Basic Multilingual
Plane).
The default font (if not redefined) is based on the OS:

panel.h are installed in (by default) /usr/local/include/xcurses.
Usage
-----
PDCurses for X11 uses the System V IPC shared memory facility, along
with sockets, to share data between the curses program and the child
process created to manage the X stuff.
When compiling your application, you need to include the \<curses.h\> or
\<xcurses.h\> that comes with PDCurses. 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
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. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### 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. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-medium-o-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-medium-o-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### boldFont
The name of a fixed width font to be used for characters with A_BOLD
attributes. Must have the same cell size as normalFont. Defaults:
- narrow: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
- wide: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1
### 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
### cursorColor
### 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

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.

Deprecated
----------
XCursesProgramName is no longer used. To set the program name, you must
use Xinitscr(), or PDC_set_title() to set just the window title.
The XCursesExit() function is now called automatically via atexit().
(Multiple calls to it are OK, so you don't need to remove it if you've
already added it for previous versions of PDCurses.)
XCURSES is no longer defined automatically, but need not be defined,
unless you want the X11-specific prototypes. (Normal curses programs
won't need it.)
