longname(3cur)
Name
longname − return full terminal type name
Syntax
char ∗longname()
Description
This routine returns a pointer to a static area containing a verbose description of the current terminal. The maximum length of a verbose description is 128 characters. It is defined only after the call to the initscr routine or the newterm routine.
The static area is overwritten by each call to newterm and is not restored by set_term. The value should be saved between calls to newterm if longname is going to be used with multiple terminals.
Return Values
The longname function returns a pointer to a verbose description of the current terminal on success and the null pointer on error.
