NAME

       tickit_term_set_output_buffer - define a terminal output buffer

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tickit.h>

       void tickit_term_set_output_buffer(TickitTerm *tt, size_t len);

       Link with -ltickit.

DESCRIPTION

       tickit_term_set_output_buffer() sets up an output buffer of the given size, to store output bytes pending
       being written to the output file descriptor, or using the output function. The value 0 may  be  given  to
       indicate that no buffer should be used. This buffer is not directly accessible.

       If  a  buffer is defined, then none of the drawing functions will immediately create output either to the
       file descriptor or the output function. Instead, they will append into  the  buffer,  to  be  flushed  by
       calling tickit_term_flush(3). If the buffer fills completely as a result of being written to by a drawing
       function, it will be flushed to the appropriate output method.

RETURN VALUE

       tickit_term_set_output_buffer() returns no value.
