DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       These routines manipulate the current  attributes  of  the
       current  or  specified window. The current attributes of a
       window are applied to all characters that are written into
       the  window  with  waddch, waddstr and wprintw. Attributes
       are a property of the character and move with the  character
 through any scrolling and insert/delete line/character
       operations. To the extent possible on the particular  terminal,
  attributes  are displayed as the graphic rendition
       of characters put on the screen.

       The routine attrset sets the  current  attributes  of  the
       window  to  attrs. The routine attroff turns off the named
       attributes without turning any other attributes on or off.
       The  routine  attron turns on the named attributes without
       affecting any others. The routine standout  is  equivalent
       to  attron(A_STANDOUT). The routine standend is equivalent
       to attrset(0); that is, standend turns off all attributes.









   Attributes    [Toc]    [Back]
       The  following  video  attributes,  which  are  defined in
       <curses.h>, can be passed to the routines attron, attroff,
       and attrset. The attributes also can be combined (by using
       an inclusive  OR  operation)  with  characters  passed  to
       addch.

       A_ALTCHARSET   Alternate character set
       A_BLINK        Blinking
       A_BOLD         Extra bright or bold
       A_DIM          Half bright
       A_INVIS        Invisible
       A_PROTECT      Protected
       A_REVERSE      Reverse video
       A_STANDOUT     Best highlighting mode of the terminal.
       A_UNDERLINE    Underlining

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  header  file  <curses.h>  automatically  includes the
       header file <stdio.h>.

       Note that attroff, attron, attrset, standend, and standout
       may be macros.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]
