int def_prog_mode(void);

int def_shell_mode(void);

int reset_prog_mode(void);

int reset_shell_mode(void);

The def_prog_mode() and def_shell_mode() functions save the current terminal modes as "program" (within X/Open Curses) or "shell" (outside X/Open Curses). The modes are saved automatically by initscr(3XCURSES), newterm(3XCURSES), and setupterm(3XCURSES).

The reset_prog_mode() and reset_shell_mode() functions reset the current terminal modes to "program" (within X/Open Curses) or "shell" (outside X/Open Curses). The endwin(3XCURSES) function automatically calls the reset_shell_mode() function and the doupdate(3XCURSES) function calls the reset_prog_mode() function after calling endwin().

On success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

None.
