intrflush(3X) intrflush(3X)
NAME
intrflush - enable or disable flush on interrupt
SYNOPSIS
cc [flag ...] file ... -lcurses [library ...]
#include <curses.h>
int intrflush(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
DESCRIPTION
The intrflush() function specifies whether pressing an interrupt key
(interrupt, suspend or quit) will flush the input buffer associated
with the current screen. If the value of bf is TRUE, then flushing of
the output buffer associated with the current screen will occur when
an interrupt key (interrupt, suspend, or quit) is pressed. If the
value of bf is FALSE then no flushing of the buffer will occur when an
interrupt key is pressed. The default for the option is inherited from
the display driver settings. The win argument is ignored.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, intrflush() returns OK. Otherwise, it
returns ERR.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
NOTES
The same effect is achieved outside Curses using the NOFLSH local mode
flag specified in the XBD specification ("General Terminal Inter-
face").
