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 "refresh, wrefresh"
|
|
The \fBrefresh\fP and \fBwrefresh\fP routines (or \fBwnoutrefresh\fP and
|
|
\fBdoupdate\fP) must be called to get actual output to the terminal,
|
|
as other routines merely manipulate data structures.
|
|
The routine \fBwrefresh\fP copies
|
|
the named window to the \fIphysical screen\fP,
|
|
taking into account what is already there to do optimizations.
|
|
The \fBrefresh\fP routine is the
|
|
same, using \fBstdscr\fP as the default window.
|
|
Unless \fBleaveok\fP(3X) has been
|
|
enabled, the physical cursor of the terminal is left at the location of the
|
|
cursor for that window.
|
|
.SS "wnoutrefresh, doupdate"
|
|
The \fBwnoutrefresh\fP and \fBdoupdate\fP routines allow multiple updates with
|
|
more efficiency than \fBwrefresh\fP alone.
|
|
In addition to all the window
|
|
structures, \fBcurses\fP keeps two data structures representing the terminal
|
|
screen:
|
|
.bP
|
|
a \fIphysical screen\fP,
|
|
describing what is actually on the screen, and
|
|
.bP
|
|
a \fIvirtual screen\fP,
|
|
describing what the programmer wants to have on the screen.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The routine \fBwrefresh\fP works by
|
|
.bP
|
|
first calling \fBwnoutrefresh\fP,
|
|
which copies the named window to the \fIvirtual screen\fP, and
|
|
.bP
|
|
then calling \fBdoupdate\fP, which compares
|
|
the \fIvirtual screen\fP to the \fIphysical screen\fP
|
|
and does the actual update.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the programmer wishes to output several windows at once, a series
|
|
of calls to \fBwrefresh\fP results in alternating calls to \fBwnoutrefresh\fP
|
|
and \fBdoupdate\fP, causing several bursts of output to the screen.
|
|
By first
|
|
calling \fBwnoutrefresh\fP for each window, it is then possible to call
|
|
\fBdoupdate\fP once, resulting in only one burst of output, with fewer total
|
|
characters transmitted and less CPU time used.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the \fIwin\fP argument to
|
|
\fBwrefresh\fP is the \fIphysical screen\fP
|
|
(i.e., the global variable \fBcurscr\fP),
|
|
the screen is immediately cleared and repainted from scratch.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The phrase \*(``copies the named window
|
|
to the virtual screen\*('' above is ambiguous.
|
|
What actually happens is that all \fItouched\fP (changed) lines in the window
|
|
are copied to the virtual screen.
|
|
This affects programs that use overlapping
|
|
windows; it means that if two windows overlap, you can refresh them in either
|
|
order and the overlap region will be modified only when it is explicitly
|
|
changed.
|
|
(But see the section on \fBPORTABILITY\fP below for a warning about
|
|
exploiting this behavior.)
|
|
.SS "wredrawln, redrawwin"
|
|
The \fBwredrawln\fP routine indicates to \fBcurses\fP that some screen lines
|
|
are corrupted and should be thrown away before anything is written over them.
|
|
It touches the indicated lines (marking them changed).
|
|
The routine \fBredrawwin\fP touches the entire window.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
These routines return the integer \fBERR\fP upon failure and \fBOK\fP
|
|
.PP
|
|
In this implementation
|
|
.RS 3
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
\fBwnoutrefresh\fP
|
|
returns
|
|
.B ERR
|
|
if the window pointer is null, or
|
|
if the window is really a pad.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
\fBwredrawln\fP
|
|
return
|
|
.B ERR
|
|
if the associated call to \fBtouchln\fP returns
|
|
.BR ERR "."
|
|
.RE
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
.B \%refresh
|
|
and
|
|
.B \%redrawwin
|
|
may be implemented as macros.
|
|
.SH PORTABILITY
|
|
X/Open Curses Issue\ 4 describes these functions.
|
|
It specifies no error conditions for them.
|
|
.PP
|
|
SVr4 describes a successful return value only as
|
|
\*(``an integer value other than
|
|
.IR ERR \*(''. \" Courier roman in source; SVID 4, vol. 3, p. 527
|
|
.PP
|
|
Whether \fBwnoutrefresh\fP copies to the virtual screen the entire contents
|
|
of a window or just its changed portions has never been well-documented in
|
|
historic curses versions (including SVr4).
|
|
It might be unwise to rely on
|
|
either behavior in programs that might have to be linked with other curses
|
|
implementations.
|
|
Instead, you can do an explicit \fBtouchwin\fP before the
|
|
\fBwnoutrefresh\fP call to guarantee an entire-contents copy anywhere.
