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.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.SS "erase, werase"
|
|
The \fBerase\fP and \fBwerase\fP routines copy blanks to every
|
|
position in the window, clearing the screen.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Blanks created by erasure have the current background rendition (as set
|
|
by \fBwbkgdset\fP(3X)) merged into them.
|
|
.SS "clear, wclear"
|
|
The \fBclear\fP and \fBwclear\fP routines are like \fBerase\fP and
|
|
\fBwerase\fP, but they also call \fBclearok\fP(3X), so that the screen is
|
|
cleared completely on the next call to \fBwrefresh\fP for that window
|
|
and repainted from scratch.
|
|
.SS "clrtobot, wclrtobot"
|
|
The \fBclrtobot\fP and \fBwclrtobot\fP routines erase from the cursor to the
|
|
end of screen.
|
|
That is, they erase all lines below the cursor in the window.
|
|
Also, the current line to the right of the cursor, inclusive, is erased.
|
|
.SS "clrtoeol, wclrtoeol"
|
|
The \fBclrtoeol\fP and \fBwclrtoeol\fP routines erase the current line
|
|
to the right of the cursor, inclusive, to the end of the current line.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
All routines return the integer \fBOK\fP on success and \fBERR\fP on failure.
|
|
.PP
|
|
In this implementation,
|
|
.bP
|
|
functions using a window pointer parameter return
|
|
.B ERR
|
|
if it is null
|
|
.bP
|
|
\fBwclrtoeol\fP returns an error
|
|
if the cursor position is about to wrap.

|
|
.SH PORTABILITY
|
|
X/Open Curses Issue\ 4 describes these functions.
|
|
It specifies no error conditions for them.
|
|
.PP
|
|
SVr4 documentation
|
|
.\" SVID 4, vol. 3, p. 485
|
|
says that these functions return
|
|
.I OK
|
|
\*(``or a non-negative integer if
|
|
.I \%immedok() \" Courier roman in source
|
|
is set\*('',
|
|
referring to the return value from
|
|
.IR \%wrefresh ","
|
|
which in SVr4 returns a count of characters
|
|
written to the window if its
|
|
.I \%immedok
|
|
property is set;
|
|
.\" ...though its wrefresh() man page says nothing about immedok()...
|
|
in
|
|
.IR \%ncurses ","
|
|
it does not.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Some historic curses implementations had, as an undocumented feature, the
|
|
ability to do the equivalent of \fBclearok(..., 1)\fP by saying
|
|
\fBtouchwin(stdscr)\fP or \fBclear(stdscr)\fP.
|
|
This will not work under
|
|
\fI\%ncurses\fP.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This implementation, and others such as Solaris,
|
|
sets the current position to 0,0 after erasing
|
|
via \fBwerase\fP and \fBwclear\fP.
|
|
That fact is not documented in other implementations,
|
|
and may not be true of implementations
|
|
which were not derived from SVr4 source.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Not obvious from the description,
|
|
most implementations clear the screen after \fBwclear\fP
|
|
even for a subwindow or derived window.
|
|
If you do not want to clear the screen during the next \fBwrefresh\fP,
|
|
use \fBwerase\fP instead.
