NAME

       keybound - return definition of keycode

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       char * keybound(int keycode, int count);

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  an  extension to the curses library.  It permits an application to determine the
       string which is defined in the terminfo for specific keycodes.

RETURN VALUE

       The keycode parameter must be greater than zero, else NULL is returned.  If  it  does  not
       correspond  to a defined key, then NULL is returned.  The count parameter is used to allow
       the application to  iterate  through  multiple  definitions,  counting  from  zero.   When
       successful, the function returns a string which must be freed by the caller.

PORTABILITY

       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.
