Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/, local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees. Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded. 127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.

|
|
Every <EM>curses</EM> window has a <EM>background</EM> <EM>character</EM> property: in the
|
|
library's non-wide-character configuration, it is a <EM>curses</EM> character
|
|
(<EM>chtype</EM>) that combines a set of attributes (and, if colors are enabled,
|
|
a color pair identifier) with a character code. When erasing (parts
|
|
of) a window, <EM>curses</EM> replaces the erased cells with the background
|
|
character.
|
|
|
|
<EM>curses</EM> also uses the background character when writing characters to a
|
|
populated window.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The attribute part of the background character combines with all
|
|
non-blank character cells in the window, as populated by the
|
|
<STRONG><A HREF="curs_addch.3x.html">waddch(3x)</A></STRONG> and <STRONG><A HREF="curs_insch.3x.html">winsch(3x)</A></STRONG> families of functions (and those that
|
|
call them).
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Both the character code and attributes of the background character
|
|
combine with blank character cells in the window.
|
|
|
|
The background character's set of attributes becomes a property of the
|
|
character cell and move with it through any scrolling and insert/delete
|
|
line/character operations. To the extent possible on the terminal
|
|
type, <EM>curses</EM> displays the attributes of the background character as the
|
|
graphic rendition of a character cell on the display.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-bkgd_wbkgd">bkgd, wbkgd</a></H3><PRE>
|
|
<STRONG>bkgd</STRONG> and <STRONG>wbkgd</STRONG> set the background property of <STRONG>stdscr</STRONG> or the specified
|
|
window and then apply this setting to every character cell in that
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The rendition of every character in the window changes to the new
|
|
background rendition.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Wherever the former background character appears, it changes to the
|
|
new background character.
|
|
|
|
<EM>ncurses</EM> updates the rendition of each character cell by comparing the
|
|
character, non-color attributes, and color pair selection. The library
|
|
applies the following procedure to each cell in the window, whether or
|
|
not it is blank.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <EM>ncurses</EM> first compares the cell's character to the previously
|
|
specified background character; if they match, <EM>ncurses</EM> writes the
|
|
new background character to the cell.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <EM>ncurses</EM> then checks whether the cell uses color; that is, its color
|
|
pair value is nonzero. If not, it simply replaces the attributes
|
|
and color pair in the cell with those from the new background
|
|
character.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If the cell uses color, and its background color matches that of
|
|
the current window background, <EM>ncurses</EM> removes attributes that may
|
|
have come from the current background and adds those from the new
|
|
background. It finishes by setting the cell's background to use
|
|
the new window background color.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If the cell uses color, and its background color does not match
|
|
that of the current window background, <EM>ncurses</EM> updates only the
|
|
non-color attributes, first removing those that may have come from
|
|
the current background, and then adding attributes from the new
|
|
background.
|
|
|
|
If the new background's character is non-spacing (for example, if it is
|
|
a control character), <EM>ncurses</EM> retains the existing background
|
|
character, except for one special case: <EM>ncurses</EM> treats a background
|
|
character code of zero (0) as a space.
|
|
|
|
If the terminal does not support color, or if color has not been
|
|
initialized with <STRONG><A HREF="curs_color.3x.html">start_color(3x)</A></STRONG>, <EM>ncurses</EM> ignores the new background
|
|
character's color pair selection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-bkgdset_wbkgdset">bkgdset, wbkgdset</a></H3><PRE>
|
|
<STRONG>bkgdset</STRONG> and <STRONG>wbkgdset</STRONG> manipulate the background of the applicable
|
|
window, without updating the character cells as <STRONG>bkgd</STRONG> and <STRONG>wbkgd</STRONG> do; only
|
|
future writes reflect the updated background.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-getbkgd">getbkgd</a></H3><PRE>
|
|
<STRONG>getbkgd</STRONG> returns the given window's background character, attributes,
|
|
and color pair as a <EM>chtype</EM>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
|
|
<STRONG>bkgdset</STRONG> and <STRONG>wbkgdset</STRONG> do not return a value.
|
|
|
|
Functions returning an <EM>int</EM> return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> upon success.
|
|
In <EM>ncurses</EM>, failure occurs if
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> the <EM>curses</EM> screen has not been initialized, or
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <EM>win</EM> is <EM>NULL</EM>.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>getbkgd</STRONG>'s return value is as described above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE>
|
|
Unusually, there is no <STRONG>wgetbkgd</STRONG> function; <STRONG>getbkgd</STRONG> behaves as one would
|
|
expect <STRONG>wgetbkgd</STRONG> to, accepting a <EM>WINDOW</EM> pointer argument.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>bkgd</STRONG> and <STRONG>bkgdset</STRONG> may be implemented as macros.
|
|
|
|
X/Open Curses mentions that the character part of the background must
|
|
be a single-byte value. <EM>ncurses</EM>, like SVr4 <EM>curses</EM>, checks to ensure
|
|
that it is, and retains the existing background character if the check
|
|
fails.

X/Open Curses Issue 4 describes these functions. It indicates that
|
|
<EM>bkgd</EM>, <EM>wbkgd</EM>, and <EM>getbkgd</EM> return <EM>ERR</EM> on failure (in the case of the
|
|
last, this value is cast to <EM>chtype</EM>), but specifies no error conditions
|
|
for them.
|
|
|
|
SVr4 documentation says that <EM>bkgd</EM> and <EM>wbkgd</EM> return <EM>OK</EM> "or a non-
|
|
negative integer if <EM>immedok()</EM> is set", referring to the return value
|
|
from <EM>wrefresh</EM>, which in SVr4 returns a count of characters written to
|
|
the window if its <EM>immedok</EM> property is set; in <EM>ncurses</EM>, it does not.
|
|
|
|
Neither X/Open Curses nor the SVr4 manual pages detail how the
|
|
rendition of characters in the window updates when <EM>bkgd</EM> or <EM>wbkgd</EM>
|
|
changes the background character. <EM>ncurses</EM>, like SVr4 <EM>curses</EM>, does not
|
|
(in its non-wide-character configuration) store the background and
|
|
window attribute contributions to each character cell separately.
