unibilium.h - ncurses terminfo parser and utility functions

#include <unibilium.h>

This library provides functions and types to access terminal descriptions in the terminfo database (in the format used by ncurses). It can parse compiled terminfo entries from memory or files, access and modify their capabilities, and generate new terminfo entries.

The following types are provided:

The main type. It represents a terminfo entry. Most functions take a pointer to this structure.
A type that represents the values in format string operations, which are either integers or strings. Its exact representation is unspecified.

See unibi_var_from_num(3), unibi_var_from_str(3), unibi_num_from_var(3), unibi_str_from_var(3) for how to use values of this type.

However, it is guaranteed that zero-initializing a "unibi_var_t" is equivalent to unibi_var_from_num(0).

An enumeration of boolean capabilities. It has the following elements:
