.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In curses.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn refresh "void"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn wrefresh "WINDOW *win"
|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions update the terminal with the contents of
|
|
.Dv stdscr
|
|
or of the specified window(s).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn refresh
|
|
function causes curses to propagate changes made to
|
|
.Dv stdscr
|
|
to the terminal display.
|
|
Any changes made to subwindows of
|
|
.Dv stdscr
|
|
are also propagated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wrefresh
|
|
function is the same as the
|
|
.Fn refresh
|
|
function, excepting that changes are propagated to the terminal from the
|
|
window specified by
|
|
.Fa win .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wnoutrefresh
|
|
function performs the internal processing required by curses to determine
|
|
what changes need to be made to synchronise the internal screen buffer
|
|
and the terminal but does not modify the terminal display.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn doupdate
|
|
function updates the terminal display to match the internal curses
|
|
representation of the display.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wnoutrefresh
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn doupdate
|
|
functions can be used together to speed up terminal redraws by
|
|
deferring the actual terminal updates until after a batch of updates
|
|
to multiple windows has been done.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn refresh
|
|
function is equivalent to
|
|
.Fn wnoutrefresh stdscr
|
|
followed by
|
|
.Fn doupdate .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn leaveok
|
|
function determines whether refresh operations may leave the screen cursor
|
|
in an arbitrary position on the screen.
|
|
Setting
|
|
.Fa flag
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv FALSE
|
|
ensures that the screen cursor is positioned at the current cursor
|
|
position after a refresh operation has taken place.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn flushok
|
|
function is used to determine whether or not the screen's output file
|
|
descriptor will be flushed on refresh.
|
|
Setting
|
|
.Fa flag
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv TRUE
|
|
will cause the output to be flushed.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Functions returning pointers will return
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if an error is detected.
|
|
The functions that return an int will return one of the following
|
|
values:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ERR -compact
|
|
.It Er OK
|
|
The function completed successfully.
|
|
.It Er ERR
|
|
An error occurred in the function.

|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
Calling
|
|
.Fn wrefresh
|
|
on a new, unchanged window has no effect.
|
|
.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nx
|
|
Curses library complies with the X/Open Curses specification, part of the
|
|
Single Unix Specification.
