Applies parameters (padding) to a terminal capability.
#include <curses.h>
char *tparm(TermCap, Parm1, Parm2, . . . Parm9) char *TermCap; int Parm1, Parm2, . . . Parm9;
The tparm subroutine applies parameters (padding) to a terminal capability.
Parm# | Specifies the parameters (up to nine) to instantiate. |
TermCap | Specifies the terminal capability to apply the parameters to. These terminal capabilities are defined in the term.h file. |
The tparm subroutine returns the escape sequence specified by the TermCap parameter with the specified parameters applied. After the escape sequence is received, it can be output by a subroutine like the tputs subroutine.
home_sequence = tparm(cursor_home);
move_sequence = tparm(cursor_address, 18, 40);
This subroutine is part of Base Operating System (BOS) Runtime.
