.SH NAME
\fBkeyok\fP \- enable or disable a keycode
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fB#include <curses.h>\fP
.sp
\fBint keyok(int keycode, bool enable);\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
This is an extension to the curses library.
It permits an application to disable specific keycodes, rather than
use the \fIkeypad\fP function to disable all keycodes.
2014-02-28 19:18:07 +00:00
Keys that have been disabled can be re-enabled.
.SH RETURN VALUE
2020-02-07 08:36:41 +00:00
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.
2020-02-07 08:36:41 +00:00
Otherwise, the function returns \fBOK\fP.
.SH PORTABILITY
2020-02-07 08:36:41 +00:00
These routines are specific to ncurses.
They were not supported on
Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
It is recommended that
any code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
