curses(3): add curses_version()

Returns NetBSD-Curses %s
Where %s is the NetBSD version taken from sys/param.h

Discussed on tech-net@, only for ncurses compat.

Rename curses_insertch.3 to curses_insch.3 to match the function names
documented in that manpage. With the letter salad used in curses
function names naming consistency is very important and this page was
the only one that didn't match.

Add mvinsch and mvwinsch links. Update xrefs in other man pages.

branches: 1.72.8; 1.72.10;
Fix typo in the man page reference

branches: 1.71.2;
Document baudrate(3).

And more functions ....

Note the substantial work by others on the curses library.

Document recently added functions in curses.3

Reference curses_slk(3).

branches: 1.66.2;
Use more markup, sort ENVIRONMENT.

Implement is_term_resized and resize_term(3) ncurses extensions.
resizeterm(3) is now a wrapper for resize_term(3).

Add the set_escdelay(3) and set_tabsize(3) ncurses extensions.

branches: 1.63.14;
Add capfile(5) to describe the termcap format.
Adjust various man pages and other documentation to point to capfile(5)
instead of termcap(5).
Remove getcap(3) as curses hasn't been building it for a long time.
Punt wrterm.c as tset no longer uses it.

branches: 1.62.2;
Move longname(3) from curses to terminfo, pre-cursor to fix PR/43386.

s/curses_fileo/curses_fileio/ in xrefs.

Bump date for *chgat*.

Add support for the chgat(3) family. It is a useful extension from
ncurses, supporting it dramatically reduces the need for ncurses in
pkgsrc.

Sort sections.

Document curses environment variables.

branches: 1.56.10;
Add new file IO functions.

Add termattrs() and term_attrs().

Patch provided in PR lib/21446 by Douwe Kiela.

Add attr_set() group of functions.
Fixes PR lib/20034 by Thomas Klausner.

Add entries for newpad(), subpad(), prefresh() and pnoutrefresh().

Added the ncurses extensions define_key and keyok.

Added separate man pages for curses functions to provide better
documentation of the curses functions.

New sentence, new line. From Robert Elz.

Set the curses default colours to white on black when using colour.
See the Single UNIX Specification, Version 2 :

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xcurses/can_change_color.html

Also, add the functions :

use_default_colors();
assume_default_colors(fore, back);

(from ncurses) that allow the terminal default colours or user-specified
default colours to be used.

Add idcok to documentation.

Two formatting fixes.

* Major change to add support for the newterm/set_term functions.
* Added fix to getch.c suggested by Gabriel Rosenkoetter (thanks :-)

Whitespace, section name, and punctuation fixes.

Added 2 new functions and a macro:
- getparx
- getpary
- getparyx (macro)
Also minor tweak to the man page to correct grammar on a couple of items.

Add mvderwin function.

Add code to allow resizing of windows and the underlying terminal.

Add entries for scrolling regions and getnstr() functions.

Add the instr and inchstr families of functions.

Minor formatting nit.

branches: 1.28.2;
Documemt getattrs(), delay_output() and napms().
Document functions (get*).

* Fixed lack of win arg in wattr* man entries.

* Made erasechar and killchar into functions
* Modified __init_getch to use termcap handle that has been allocated
(_cursesi_genbuf) instead of refetching it.
* Make wgetstr support erase - this is not a full blown SUSv2 version
but it is a start.

Add wnoutrefresh() and doupdate().

* Fixed bug in copywin.
* Fixed bug in overwrite.
* Added functions is_linetouched, is_wintouched, untouchwin and wtouchln.

Fix `.Fn' call.

* Added rcs id line to files missing it.
* Added code to __restartwin to restore meta and cursor visibility states
* Added code to __stopwin to disable meta.
* Added the *line group of functions for drawing character lines.

* Added ungetch
* Converted inkey and getch to use getchar instead of read so ungetch
will work.

* Fixed need for duplicate namp string in setterm.c
* Added meta function (turns meta bit on and off on terminal if supported)
* Added curs_set to control cursor visibility if supported.

* Added new function dupwin.
* Fixed bug in copywin overwrite code.

More multiple changes:
* Added function derwin.
* Added function copywin.
* Modified both overlay and overwrite to use copywin.
* Updated man page with new functions and fixed minor format glitch.

Add colour capabilities and functions.
Add background manipulation functions.
Add def/reset_prog/shell_mode().

Made data structures opaque

branches: 1.15.6;
In name section, use .Dq macro rather than writing double quote directly.

Get rid of the evil trailing spaces and tabs.

Upgrades the standard NetBSD curses library to provide some
of the SYSV curses facilities. The added features are the collapsing
of arrow and function keysequences (as defined by termcap for the
terminal) into symbolic code returns thus relieving the application of
recognising multi-character key sequences. Other features are the
capability to perform a timed wait for a key (good for when you are
not sure if there is a keypress ready or not) and the capability for
turning off the inter-key timeout when assembling multi-character
function keys.

this work was done by Julian Coleman <J.D.Coleman@newcastle.ac.uk>
and blymn@baea.com.au (Brett Lymn). i'm just integrating it. thanks
HEAPS guys!

Last of the .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages. Wheee!
