| .TH keyok 3X 2024-03-16 "ncurses @NCURSES_MAJOR@.@NCURSES_MINOR@" "Library calls" |
| .SH NAME |
| \fB\%keyok\fP \- |
| enable or disable a \fIcurses\fR keycode |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .nf |
| \fB#include <curses.h> |
| .PP |
| \fBint keyok(int \fIkeycode\fP, bool \fIenable\fP); |
| .fi |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| This is an extension to the \fIcurses\fP library. |
| It permits an application to disable specific keycodes, rather than |
| use the \fB\%keypad\fP function to disable all keycodes. |
| Keys that have been disabled can be re-enabled. |
| .SH RETURN VALUE |
| The keycode must be greater than zero, else \fBERR\fP is returned. |
| If it does not correspond to a defined key, then \fBERR\fP is returned. |
| If the \fIenable\fP parameter is true, then the key must have been disabled, |
| and vice versa. |
| Otherwise, the function returns \fBOK\fP. |
| .SH PORTABILITY |
| This routine is specific to \fI\%ncurses\fP. |
| It was not supported on |
| Version 7, BSD or System V implementations. |
| It is recommended that |
| any code depending on them be conditioned using \fB\%NCURSES_VERSION\fP. |
