DESCRIPTION
The
endwin() function restores the terminal after Curses activity by
at least restoring the saved shell terminsl mode, flushing any output
to the terminal, and moving the cursor to the first column of the
last line of the screen. Refreshing a window resumes program mode.
The application must call
endwin() for each terminal being used
before exiting. If
newterm(3XCURSES) is called more than once for the
same terminal, the first screen created must be the last one for
which
endwin() is called.
The
isendiwin() function indicates whether or not a screen has been
refreshed since the last call to
endwin().
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the
endwin() function returns
OK.
Otherwise, it returns
ERR.
The
isendwin() function returns
TRUE if
endwin() has been called
without any subsequent refresh. Otherwise, it returns
FALSE.
ERRORS
Non errors are defined.
