Structs§

_G_fpos64_t
The tag name of this struct is _G_fpos64_t to preserve historic C++ mangled names for functions taking fpos_t and/or fpos64_t arguments. That name should not be used in new code.
_G_fpos_t
The tag name of this struct is _G_fpos_t to preserve historic C++ mangled names for functions taking fpos_t arguments. That name should not be used in new code.
_IO_FILE
The tag name of this struct is _IO_FILE to preserve historic C++ mangled names for functions taking FILE* arguments. That name should not be used in new code.
_IO_codecvt
_IO_marker
_IO_wide_data
__IncompleteArrayField
__fsid_t
__mbstate_t
Conversion state information.
__sigset_t
__va_list_tag
cmsghdr
Structure used for storage of ancillary data object information.
div_t
Returned by `div’.
in6_addr
IPv6 address
in_addr
iovec
Structure for scatter/gather I/O.
ldiv_t
linger
Structure used to manipulate the SO_LINGER option.
lldiv_t
Returned by `lldiv’.
nccapabilities
Capabilities, derived from terminfo, environment variables, and queries
nccell
An nccell corresponds to a single character cell on some plane, which can be occupied by a single grapheme cluster (some root spacing glyph, along with possible combining characters, which might span multiple columns). At any cell, we can have a theoretically arbitrarily long UTF-8 EGC, a foreground color, a background color, and an attribute set. Valid grapheme cluster contents include:
ncdirect
ncdplot
ncfadectx
ncfdplane
ncfdplane_options
read from an fd until EOF (or beyond, if follow is set), invoking the user’s callback each time. runs in its own context. on EOF or error, the finalizer callback will be invoked, and the user ought destroy the ncfdplane. the data is not guaranteed to be nul-terminated, and may contain arbitrary zeroes.
ncinput
An input event. Cell coordinates are currently defined only for mouse events. It is not guaranteed that we can set the modifiers for a given ncinput. We encompass single Unicode codepoints, not complete EGCs. FIXME for abi4, combine the bools into |modifiers|
ncmenu
ncmenu_item
Menus. Horizontal menu bars are supported, on the top and/or bottom rows. If the menu bar is longer than the screen, it will be only partially visible. Menus may be either visible or invisible by default. In the event of a plane resize, menus will be automatically moved/resized. Elements can be dynamically enabled or disabled at all levels (menu, section, and item),
ncmenu_options
ncmenu_section
ncmselector_item
ncmultiselector
ncmultiselector_options
multiselection widget – a selector supporting multiple selections.
ncpalette
Palette API. Some terminals only support 256 colors, but allow the full palette to be specified with arbitrary RGB colors. In all cases, it’s more performant to use indexed colors, since it’s much less data to write to the terminal. If you can limit yourself to 256 colors, that’s probably best.
ncplane
ncplane_options
ncplot_options
ncprogbar
ncprogbar_options
ncreader
ncreader_options
ncreel
ncreel_options
ncselector
ncselector_item
selection widget – an ncplane with a title header and a body section. the body section supports infinite scrolling up and down.
ncselector_options
ncstats
whenever a new field is added here, ensure we add the proper rule to notcurses_stats_reset(), so that values are preserved in the stash stats.
ncsubproc
ncsubproc_options
nctab
nctabbed
nctabbed_options
nctablet
nctree
nctree_item
each item has a curry, and zero or more subitems.
nctree_options
ncuplot
ncvgeom
describes all geometries of an ncvisual: those which are inherent, and those dependent upon a given rendering regime. pixy and pixx are the true internal pixel geometry, taken directly from the load (and updated by ncvisual_resize()). cdimy/cdimx are the cell-pixel geometry at the time of this call (it can change with a font change, in which case all values other than pixy/pixx are invalidated). rpixy/rpixx are the pixel geometry as handed to the blitter, following any scaling. scaley/scalex are the number of input pixels drawn to a single cell; when using NCBLIT_PIXEL, they are equivalent to cdimy/cdimx. rcelly/rcellx are the cell geometry as written by the blitter, following any padding (there is padding whenever rpix{y, x} is not evenly divided by scale{y, x}, and also sometimes for Sixel). maxpixely/maxpixelx are defined only when NCBLIT_PIXEL is used, and specify the largest bitmap that the terminal is willing to accept. blitter is the blitter which will be used, a function of the requested blitter and the blitters actually supported by this environment. if no ncvisual was supplied, only cdimy/cdimx are filled in.
ncvisual
ncvisual_options
notcurses
notcurses_options
Configuration for notcurses_init().
sigaction
Structure describing the action to be taken when a signal arrives.
sockaddr
Structure describing a generic socket address.
sockaddr_in
Structure describing an Internet socket address.
sockaddr_in6
Ditto, for IPv6.
sockaddr_storage
timespec
POSIX.1b structure for a time value. This is like a `struct timeval’ but has nanoseconds instead of microseconds.
tm
ISO C `broken-down time’ structure.

ncpixelimpl_e_NCPIXEL_ITERM2
iTerm2
ncpixelimpl_e_NCPIXEL_KITTY_ANIMATED
until 0.22.0’s introduction of ‘a=c’ for self-referential composition, we had to keep a complete copy of the RGBA data, in case a wiped cell needed to be rebuilt. we’d otherwise have to unpack the glyph and store it into the auxvec on the fly.
ncpixelimpl_e_NCPIXEL_KITTY_SELFREF
with 0.22.0, we only ever write transparent cells after writing the original image (which we now deflate, since we needn’t unpack it later). the only data we need keep is the auxvecs.
ncpixelimpl_e_NCPIXEL_KITTY_STATIC
C=1 (disabling scrolling) was only introduced in 0.20.0, at the same time as animation. prior to this, graphics had to be entirely redrawn on any change, and it wasn’t possible to use the bottom line.

Returns a single Unicode code point, a synthesized special key constant, or (uint32_t)-1 on error. Returns 0 on a timeout. If an event is processed, the return value is the ‘id’ field from that event. ‘ni’ may be NULL.
ncdirect_hline_interp
Draw horizontal/vertical lines using the specified channels, interpolating between them as we go. The EGC may not use more than one column. For a horizontal line, |len| cannot exceed the screen width minus the cursor’s offset. For a vertical line, it may be as long as you’d like; the screen will scroll as necessary. All lines start at the current cursor position.
ncdirect_init
Initialize a direct-mode Notcurses context on the connected terminal at ‘fp’. ‘fp’ must be a tty. You’ll usually want stdout. Direct mode supports a limited subset of Notcurses routines which directly affect ‘fp’, and neither supports nor requires notcurses_render(). This can be used to add color and styling to text in the standard output paradigm. ‘flags’ is a bitmask over NCDIRECT_OPTION_*. Returns NULL on error, including any failure initializing terminfo.
ncdirect_inputready_fd
Get a file descriptor suitable for input event poll()ing. When this descriptor becomes available, you can call ncdirect_get_nblock(), and input ought be ready. This file descriptor is not necessarily the file descriptor associated with stdin (but it might be!).
ncdirect_off_styles
ncdirect_on_styles
ncdirect_palette_size
Returns the number of simultaneous colors claimed to be supported, or 1 if there is no color support. Note that several terminal emulators advertise more colors than they actually support, downsampling internally.
ncdirect_printf_aligned
Formatted printing (plus alignment relative to the terminal). Returns the number of columns printed on success.
ncdirect_putegc
Output a single EGC (this might be several characters) from |utf8|, according to the channels |channels|. On success, the number of columns thought to have been used is returned, and if |sbytes| is not NULL, the number of bytes consumed will be written there.
ncdirect_putstr
Output the string |utf8| according to the channels |channels|. Note that ncdirect_putstr() does not explicitly flush output buffers, so it will not necessarily be immediately visible. Returns EOF on error.
ncdirect_raster_frame
Takes the result of ncdirect_render_frame() and writes it to the output, freeing it on all paths.
ncdirect_readline
Read a (heap-allocated) newline-delimited chunk of text, after printing the prompt. The newline itself, if present, is included. Returns NULL on error.
ncdirect_render_frame
Render an image using the specified blitter and scaling, but do not write the result. The image may be arbitrarily many rows – the output will scroll – but will only occupy the column of the cursor, and those to the right. To actually write (and free) this, invoke ncdirect_raster_frame(). ‘maxx’ and ‘maxy’ (cell geometry, not pixel), if greater than 0, are used for scaling; the terminal’s geometry is otherwise used.
ncdirect_render_image
Display an image using the specified blitter and scaling. The image may be arbitrarily many rows – the output will scroll – but will only occupy the column of the cursor, and those to the right. The render/raster process can be split by using ncdirect_render_frame() and ncdirect_raster_frame().
ncdirect_rounded_box
ncdirect_box() with the rounded box-drawing characters
ncdirect_set_bg_default
ncdirect_set_bg_palindex
ncdirect_set_bg_rgb
ncdirect_set_fg_default
ncdirect_set_fg_palindex
ncdirect_set_fg_rgb
Direct mode. This API can be used to colorize and stylize output generated outside of notcurses, without ever calling notcurses_render(). These should not be intermixed with standard Notcurses rendering.
ncdirect_set_styles
ncplane_styles_*() analogues
ncdirect_stop
Release ‘nc’ and any associated resources. 0 on success, non-0 on failure.
ncdirect_stream
Load successive frames from a file, invoking ‘streamer’ on each.
ncdirect_styles
ncdirect_supported_styles
Returns a 16-bit bitmask of supported curses-style attributes (NCSTYLE_UNDERLINE, NCSTYLE_BOLD, etc.) The attribute is only indicated as supported if the terminal can support it together with color. For more information, see the “ncv” capability in terminfo(5).
ncdirect_vline_interp
ncdirectf_free
Free a ncdirectf returned from ncdirectf_from_file().
ncdirectf_from_file
Load media from disk, but do not yet render it (presumably because you want to get its geometry via ncdirectf_geom(), or to use the same file with ncdirect_render_loaded_frame() multiple times). You must destroy the result with ncdirectf_free();
ncdirectf_geom
Having loaded the frame ‘frame’, get the geometry of a potential render.
ncdirectf_render
Same as ncdirect_render_frame(), except ‘frame’ must already have been loaded. A loaded frame may be rendered in different ways before it is destroyed.
ncdplot_add_sample
ncdplot_create
ncdplot_destroy
ncdplot_plane
ncdplot_sample
ncdplot_set_sample
ncfadectx_free
Release the resources associated with ‘nctx’.
ncfadectx_iterations
Return the number of iterations through which ‘nctx’ will fade.
ncfadectx_setup
Rather than the simple ncplane_fade{in/out}(), ncfadectx_setup() can be paired with a loop over ncplane_fade{in/out}_iteration() + ncfadectx_free().
ncfdplane_create
Create an ncfdplane around the fd ‘fd’. Consider this function to take ownership of the file descriptor, which will be closed in ncfdplane_destroy().
ncfdplane_destroy
ncfdplane_plane
ncmenu_create
Create a menu with the specified options, bound to the specified plane.
ncmenu_destroy
Destroy a menu created with ncmenu_create().
ncmenu_item_set_status
Disable or enable a menu item. Returns 0 if the item was found.
ncmenu_mouse_selected
Return the item description corresponding to the mouse click ‘click’. The item must be on an actively unrolled section, and the click must be in the area of a valid item. If ‘ni’ is not NULL, and the selected item has a shortcut, ‘ni’ will be filled in with the shortcut.
ncmenu_nextitem
Move to the previous/next item within the currently unrolled section. If no section is unrolled, the first section will be unrolled.
ncmenu_nextsection
Unroll the previous/next section (relative to current unrolled). If no section is unrolled, the first section will be unrolled.
ncmenu_offer_input
Offer the input to the ncmenu. If it’s relevant, this function returns true, and the input ought not be processed further. If it’s irrelevant to the menu, false is returned. Relevant inputs include:
ncmenu_plane
Return the ncplane backing this ncmenu.
ncmenu_previtem
ncmenu_prevsection
ncmenu_rollup
Roll up any unrolled menu section, and hide the menu if using hiding.
ncmenu_selected
Return the selected item description, or NULL if no section is unrolled. If ‘ni’ is not NULL, and the selected item has a shortcut, ‘ni’ will be filled in with that shortcut–this can allow faster matching.
ncmenu_unroll
Unroll the specified menu section, making the menu visible if it was invisible, and rolling up any menu section that is already unrolled.
ncmultiselector_create
ncmultiselector_destroy
Destroy the ncmultiselector.
ncmultiselector_offer_input
Offer the input to the ncmultiselector. If it’s relevant, this function returns true, and the input ought not be processed further. If it’s irrelevant to the multiselector, false is returned. Relevant inputs include:
ncmultiselector_plane
Return a reference to the ncmultiselector’s underlying ncplane.
ncmultiselector_selected
Return selected vector. An array of bools must be provided, along with its length. If that length doesn’t match the itemcount, it is an error.
ncnmetric
snprintf(3) is used internally, with ‘s’ as its size bound. If the output requires more size than is available, NULL will be returned.
ncpalette_free
Free the palette store ‘p’.
ncpalette_new
Create a new palette store. It will be initialized with notcurses’ best knowledge of the currently configured palette.
ncpalette_use
Attempt to configure the terminal with the provided palette ‘p’. Does not transfer ownership of ‘p’; ncpalette_free() can (ought) still be called.
ncpile_bottom
Return the bottommost plane of the pile containing ‘n’.
ncpile_create
Same as ncplane_create(), but creates a new pile. The returned plane will be the top, bottom, and root of this new pile.
ncpile_rasterize
Make the physical screen match the last rendered frame from the pile of which ‘n’ is a part. This is a blocking call. Don’t call this before the pile has been rendered (doing so will likely result in a blank screen).
ncpile_render
Renders the pile of which ‘n’ is a part. Rendering this pile again will blow away the render. To actually write out the render, call ncpile_rasterize().
ncpile_render_to_buffer
Perform the rendering and rasterization portion of ncpile_render() and ncpile_rasterize(), but do not write the resulting buffer out to the terminal. Using this function, the user can control the writeout process. The returned buffer must be freed by the caller.
ncpile_render_to_file
Write the last rendered frame, in its entirety, to ‘fp’. If a frame has not yet been rendered, nothing will be written.
ncpile_top
Return the topmost plane of the pile containing ‘n’.
ncplane_above
Return the plane above this one, or NULL if this is at the top.
ncplane_abs_x
ncplane_abs_y
ncplane_abs_yx
Get the origin of plane ‘n’ relative to its pile. Either or both of ‘x’ and ‘y’ may be NULL.
ncplane_as_rgba
Create an RGBA flat array from the selected region of the ncplane ‘nc’. Start at the plane’s ‘begy’x’begx’ coordinate (which must lie on the plane), continuing for ‘leny’x’lenx’ cells. Either or both of ‘leny’ and ‘lenx’ can be specified as 0 to go through the boundary of the plane. Only glyphs from the specified ncblitset may be present. If ‘pxdimy’ and/or ‘pxdimx’ are non-NULL, they will be filled in with the total pixel geometry.
ncplane_at_cursor
Retrieve the current contents of the cell under the cursor. The EGC is returned, or NULL on error. This EGC must be free()d by the caller. The stylemask and channels are written to ‘stylemask’ and ‘channels’, respectively.
ncplane_at_cursor_cell
Retrieve the current contents of the cell under the cursor into ‘c’. This cell is invalidated if the associated plane is destroyed. Returns the number of bytes in the EGC, or -1 on error.
ncplane_at_yx
Retrieve the current contents of the specified cell. The EGC is returned, or NULL on error. This EGC must be free()d by the caller. The stylemask and channels are written to ‘stylemask’ and ‘channels’, respectively. The return represents how the cell will be used during rendering, and thus integrates any base cell where appropriate. If called upon the secondary columns of a wide glyph, the EGC will be returned (i.e. this function does not distinguish between the primary and secondary columns of a wide glyph). If called on a sprixel plane, its control sequence is returned for all valid locations.
ncplane_at_yx_cell
Retrieve the current contents of the specified cell into ‘c’. This cell is invalidated if the associated plane is destroyed. Returns the number of bytes in the EGC, or -1 on error. Unlike ncplane_at_yx(), when called upon the secondary columns of a wide glyph, the return can be distinguished from the primary column (nccell_wide_right_p(c) will return true). It is an error to call this on a sprixel plane (unlike ncplane_at_yx()).
ncplane_autogrow_p
ncplane_base
Extract the ncplane’s base nccell into ‘c’. The reference is invalidated if ‘ncp’ is destroyed.
ncplane_below
Return the plane below this one, or NULL if this is at the bottom.
ncplane_box
Draw a box with its upper-left corner at the current cursor position, and its lower-right corner at ‘ystop’x’xstop’. The 6 cells provided are used to draw the upper-left, ur, ll, and lr corners, then the horizontal and vertical lines. ‘ctlword’ is defined in the least significant byte, where bits [7, 4] are a gradient mask, and [3, 0] are a border mask:
ncplane_center_abs
Find the center coordinate of a plane, preferring the top/left in the case of an even number of rows/columns (in such a case, there will be one more cell to the bottom/right of the center than the top/left). The center is then modified relative to the plane’s origin.
ncplane_channels
Get the current colors and alpha values for ncplane ‘n’.
ncplane_contents
Create a flat string from the EGCs of the selected region of the ncplane ‘n’. Start at the plane’s ‘begy’x’begx’ coordinate (which must lie on the plane), continuing for ‘leny’x’lenx’ cells. Either or both of ‘leny’ and ‘lenx’ can be specified as 0 to go through the boundary of the plane. -1 can be specified for ‘begx’/‘begy’ to use the current cursor location.
ncplane_create
Create a new ncplane bound to plane ‘n’, at the offset ‘y’x’x’ (relative to the origin of ‘n’) and the specified size. The number of ‘rows’ and ‘cols’ must both be positive. This plane is initially at the top of the z-buffer, as if ncplane_move_top() had been called on it. The void* ‘userptr’ can be retrieved (and reset) later. A ‘name’ can be set, used in debugging.
ncplane_cursor_move_rel
Move the cursor relative to the current cursor position (the cursor needn’t be visible). Returns -1 on error, including target position exceeding the plane’s dimensions.
ncplane_cursor_move_yx
Move the cursor to the specified position (the cursor needn’t be visible). Pass -1 as either coordinate to hold that axis constant. Returns -1 if the move would place the cursor outside the plane.
ncplane_cursor_yx
Get the current position of the cursor within n. y and/or x may be NULL.
ncplane_destroy
Destroy the specified ncplane. None of its contents will be visible after the next call to notcurses_render(). It is an error to attempt to destroy the standard plane.
ncplane_dim_yx
Return the dimensions of this ncplane. y or x may be NULL.
ncplane_dup
Duplicate an existing ncplane. The new plane will have the same geometry, will duplicate all content, and will start with the same rendering state. The new plane will be immediately above the old one on the z axis, and will be bound to the same parent (unless ‘n’ is a root plane, in which case the new plane will be bound to it). Bound planes are not duplicated; the new plane is bound to the parent of ‘n’, but has no bound planes.
ncplane_erase
Erase every cell in the ncplane (each cell is initialized to the null glyph and the default channels/styles). All cells associated with this ncplane are invalidated, and must not be used after the call, excluding the base cell. The cursor is homed. The plane’s active attributes are unaffected.
ncplane_erase_region
Erase every cell in the region starting at {ystart, xstart} and having size {|ylen|x|xlen|} for non-zero lengths. If ystart and/or xstart are -1, the current cursor position along that axis is used; other negative values are an error. A negative ylen means to move up from the origin, and a negative xlen means to move left from the origin. A positive ylen moves down, and a positive xlen moves right. A value of 0 for the length erases everything along that dimension. It is an error if the starting coordinate is not in the plane, but the ending coordinate may be outside the plane.
ncplane_fadein
Fade the ncplane in over the specified time. Load the ncplane with the target cells without rendering, then call this function. When it’s done, the ncplane will have reached the target levels, starting from zeroes.
ncplane_fadein_iteration
Fade in through ‘iter’ iterations, where ‘iter’ < ‘ncfadectx_iterations(nctx)’.
ncplane_fadeout
Fade the ncplane out over the provided time, calling ‘fader’ at each iteration. Requires a terminal which supports truecolor, or at least palette modification (if the terminal uses a palette, our ability to fade planes is limited, and affected by the complexity of the rest of the screen).
ncplane_fadeout_iteration
Fade out through ‘iter’ iterations, where ‘iter’ < ‘ncfadectx_iterations(nctx)’.
ncplane_format
Set the given style throughout the specified region, keeping content and channels unchanged. The upper left corner is at ‘y’, ‘x’, and -1 may be specified to indicate the cursor’s position in that dimension. The area is specified by ‘ylen’, ‘xlen’, and 0 may be specified to indicate everything remaining to the right and below, respectively. It is an error for any coordinate to be outside the plane. Returns the number of cells set, or -1 on failure.
ncplane_gradient
Draw a gradient with its upper-left corner at the position specified by ‘y’/‘x’, where -1 means the current cursor position in that dimension. The area is specified by ‘ylen’/‘xlen’, where 0 means “everything remaining below or to the right, respectively.” The glyph composed of ‘egc’ and ‘styles’ is used for all cells. The channels specified by ‘ul’, ‘ur’, ‘ll’, and ‘lr’ are composed into foreground and background gradients. To do a vertical gradient, ‘ul’ ought equal ‘ur’ and ‘ll’ ought equal ‘lr’. To do a horizontal gradient, ‘ul’ ought equal ‘ll’ and ‘ur’ ought equal ‘ul’. To color everything the same, all four channels should be equivalent. The resulting alpha values are equal to incoming alpha values. Returns the number of cells filled on success, or -1 on failure. Palette-indexed color is not supported.
ncplane_gradient2x1
Do a high-resolution gradient using upper blocks and synced backgrounds. This doubles the number of vertical gradations, but restricts you to half blocks (appearing to be full blocks). Returns the number of cells filled on success, or -1 on error.
ncplane_greyscale
Convert the plane’s content to greyscale.
ncplane_hline_interp
Draw horizontal or vertical lines using the specified cell, starting at the current cursor position. The cursor will end at the cell following the last cell output (even, perhaps counter-intuitively, when drawing vertical lines), just as if ncplane_putc() was called at that spot. Return the number of cells drawn on success. On error, return the negative number of cells drawn. A length of 0 is an error, resulting in a return of -1.
ncplane_home
Move the cursor to 0, 0. Can’t fail.
ncplane_mergedown
Merge the ncplane ‘src’ down onto the ncplane ‘dst’. This is most rigorously defined as “write to ‘dst’ the frame that would be rendered were the entire stack made up only of the specified subregion of ‘src’ and, below it, the subregion of ‘dst’ having the specified origin. Supply -1 to indicate the current cursor position in the relevant dimension. Merging is independent of the position of ‘src’ viz ‘dst’ on the z-axis. It is an error to define a subregion that is not entirely contained within ‘src’. It is an error to define a target origin such that the projected subregion is not entirely contained within ‘dst’. Behavior is undefined if ‘src’ and ‘dst’ are equivalent. ‘dst’ is modified, but ‘src’ remains unchanged. Neither ‘src’ nor ‘dst’ may have sprixels. Lengths of 0 mean “everything left”.
ncplane_mergedown_simple
Merge the entirety of ‘src’ down onto the ncplane ‘dst’. If ‘src’ does not intersect with ‘dst’, ‘dst’ will not be changed, but it is not an error.
ncplane_move_above
Splice ncplane ‘n’ out of the z-buffer, and reinsert it above ‘above’. Returns non-zero if ‘n’ is already in the desired location. ‘n’ and ‘above’ must not be the same plane. If ‘above’ is NULL, ‘n’ is moved to the bottom of its pile.
ncplane_move_below
Splice ncplane ‘n’ out of the z-buffer, and reinsert it below ‘below’. Returns non-zero if ‘n’ is already in the desired location. ‘n’ and ‘below’ must not be the same plane. If ‘below’ is NULL, ‘n’ is moved to the top of its pile.
ncplane_move_family_above
Splice ncplane ‘n’ and its bound planes out of the z-buffer, and reinsert them above or below ‘targ’. Relative order will be maintained between the reinserted planes. For a plane E bound to C, with z-ordering A B C D E, moving the C family to the top results in C E A B D, while moving it to the bottom results in A B D C E.
ncplane_move_family_below
ncplane_move_yx
Move this plane relative to the standard plane, or the plane to which it is bound (if it is bound to a plane). It is an error to attempt to move the standard plane.
ncplane_name
Return a heap-allocated copy of the plane’s name, or NULL if it has none.
ncplane_notcurses
Extract the Notcurses context to which this plane is attached.
ncplane_notcurses_const
ncplane_off_styles
Remove the specified styles from the ncplane’s existing spec.
ncplane_on_styles
Add the specified styles to the ncplane’s existing spec.
ncplane_parent
Get the plane to which the plane ‘n’ is bound, if any.
ncplane_parent_const
ncplane_pixel_geom
Retrieve pixel geometry for the display region (‘pxy’, ‘pxx’), each cell (‘celldimy’, ‘celldimx’), and the maximum displayable bitmap (‘maxbmapy’, ‘maxbmapx’). If bitmaps are not supported, or if there is no artificial limit on bitmap size, ‘maxbmapy’ and ‘maxbmapx’ will be 0. Any of the geometry arguments may be NULL.
ncplane_polyfill_yx
Starting at the specified coordinate, if its glyph is different from that of ‘c’, ‘c’ is copied into it, and the original glyph is considered the fill target. We do the same to all cardinally-connected cells having this same fill target. Returns the number of cells polyfilled. An invalid initial y, x is an error. Returns the number of cells filled, or -1 on error.
ncplane_pulse
Pulse the plane in and out until the callback returns non-zero, relying on the callback ‘fader’ to initiate rendering. ‘ts’ defines the half-period (i.e. the transition from black to full brightness, or back again). Proper use involves preparing (but not rendering) an ncplane, then calling ncplane_pulse(), which will fade in from black to the specified colors.
ncplane_putc_yx
Replace the cell at the specified coordinates with the provided cell ‘c’, and advance the cursor by the width of the cell (but not past the end of the plane). On success, returns the number of columns the cursor was advanced. ‘c’ must already be associated with ‘n’. On failure, -1 is returned.
ncplane_putchar_stained
Replace the EGC underneath us, but retain the styling. The current styling of the plane will not be changed.
ncplane_putegc_stained
Replace the EGC underneath us, but retain the styling. The current styling of the plane will not be changed.
ncplane_putegc_yx
Replace the cell at the specified coordinates with the provided EGC, and advance the cursor by the width of the cluster (but not past the end of the plane). On success, returns the number of columns the cursor was advanced. On failure, -1 is returned. The number of bytes converted from gclust is written to ‘sbytes’ if non-NULL.
ncplane_putnstr_aligned
ncplane_puttext
Write the specified text to the plane, breaking lines sensibly, beginning at the specified line. Returns the number of columns written. When breaking a line, the line will be cleared to the end of the plane (the last line will not be so cleared). The number of bytes written from the input is written to ‘*bytes’ if it is not NULL. Cleared columns are included in the return value, but not included in the number of bytes written. Leaves the cursor at the end of output. A partial write will be accomplished as far as it can; determine whether the write completed by inspecting ‘*bytes’. Can output to multiple rows even in the absence of scrolling, but not more rows than are available. With scrolling enabled, arbitrary amounts of data can be emitted. All provided whitespace is preserved – ncplane_puttext() followed by an appropriate ncplane_contents() will read back the original output.
ncplane_putwegc_stained
Replace the EGC underneath us, but retain the styling. The current styling of the plane will not be changed.
ncplane_putwstr_stained
ncplane_qrcode
Draw a QR code at the current position on the plane. If there is insufficient room to draw the code here, or there is any other error, non-zero will be returned. Otherwise, the QR code “version” (size) is returned. The QR code is (version * 4 + 17) columns wide, and ⌈version * 4 + 17⌉ rows tall (the properly-scaled values are written back to ‘*ymax’ and ‘*xmax’).
ncplane_reparent
Plane ‘n’ will be unbound from its parent plane, and will be made a bound child of ‘newparent’. It is an error if ‘n’ or ‘newparent’ are NULL. If ‘newparent’ is equal to ‘n’, ‘n’ becomes the root of a new pile, unless ‘n’ is already the root of a pile, in which case this is a no-op. Returns ‘n’. The standard plane cannot be reparented. Any planes bound to ‘n’ are reparented to the previous parent of ‘n’.
ncplane_reparent_family
The same as ncplane_reparent(), except any planes bound to ‘n’ come along with it to its new destination. Their z-order is maintained. If ‘newparent’ is an ancestor of ‘n’, NULL is returned, and no changes are made.
ncplane_resize
Resize the specified ncplane. The four parameters ‘keepy’, ‘keepx’, ‘keepleny’, and ‘keeplenx’ define a subset of the ncplane to keep, unchanged. This may be a region of size 0, though none of these four parameters may be negative. ‘keepx’ and ‘keepy’ are relative to the ncplane. They must specify a coordinate within the ncplane’s totality. ‘yoff’ and ‘xoff’ are relative to ‘keepy’ and ‘keepx’, and place the upper-left corner of the resized ncplane. Finally, ‘ylen’ and ‘xlen’ are the dimensions of the ncplane after resizing. ‘ylen’ must be greater than or equal to ‘keepleny’, and ‘xlen’ must be greater than or equal to ‘keeplenx’. It is an error to attempt to resize the standard plane. If either of ‘keepleny’ or ‘keeplenx’ is non-zero, both must be non-zero.
ncplane_resize_marginalized
resize the plane to its parent’s size, attempting to enforce the margins supplied along with NCPLANE_OPTION_MARGINALIZED.
ncplane_resize_maximize
resize the plane to the visual region’s size (used for the standard plane).
ncplane_resize_placewithin
move the plane such that it is entirely within its parent, if possible. no resizing is performed.
ncplane_resize_realign
realign the plane ‘n’ against its parent, using the alignments specified with NCPLANE_OPTION_HORALIGNED and/or NCPLANE_OPTION_VERALIGNED.
ncplane_resizecb
Returns the ncplane’s current resize callback.
ncplane_rotate_ccw
ncplane_rotate_cw
Rotate the plane π/2 radians clockwise or counterclockwise. This cannot be performed on arbitrary planes, because glyphs cannot be arbitrarily rotated. The glyphs which can be rotated are limited: line-drawing characters, spaces, half blocks, and full blocks. The plane must have an even number of columns. Use the ncvisual rotation for a more flexible approach.
ncplane_scrolling_p
ncplane_scrollup
Effect |r| scroll events on the plane |n|. Returns an error if |n| is not a scrolling plane, and otherwise returns the number of lines scrolled.
ncplane_scrollup_child
Scroll |n| up until |child| is no longer hidden beneath it. Returns an error if |child| is not a child of |n|, or |n| is not scrolling, or |child| is fixed. Returns the number of scrolling events otherwise (might be 0). If the child plane is not fixed, it will likely scroll as well.
ncplane_set_autogrow
By default, planes are created with autogrow disabled. Autogrow can be dynamically controlled with ncplane_set_autogrow(). Returns true if autogrow was previously enabled, or false if it was disabled.
ncplane_set_base
Set the ncplane’s base nccell. It will be used for purposes of rendering anywhere that the ncplane’s gcluster is 0. Note that the base cell is not affected by ncplane_erase(). ‘egc’ must be an extended grapheme cluster. Returns the number of bytes copied out of ‘gcluster’, or -1 on failure.
ncplane_set_base_cell
Set the ncplane’s base nccell to ‘c’. The base cell is used for purposes of rendering anywhere that the ncplane’s gcluster is 0. Note that the base cell is not affected by ncplane_erase(). ‘c’ must not be a secondary cell from a multicolumn EGC.
ncplane_set_bchannel
Set the background alpha and coloring bits of the plane’s current channels from a single 32-bit value.
ncplane_set_bg_alpha
ncplane_set_bg_default
ncplane_set_bg_palindex
ncplane_set_bg_rgb
ncplane_set_bg_rgb8
ncplane_set_bg_rgb8_clipped
Same, but clipped to [0..255].
ncplane_set_channels
Set the alpha and coloring bits of the plane’s current channels from a 64-bit pair of channels.
ncplane_set_fchannel
Set the foreground alpha and coloring bits of the plane’s current channels from a single 32-bit value.
ncplane_set_fg_alpha
Set the alpha parameters for ncplane ‘n’.
ncplane_set_fg_default
Use the default color for the foreground/background.
ncplane_set_fg_palindex
Set the ncplane’s foreground palette index, set the foreground palette index bit, set it foreground-opaque, and clear the foreground default color bit.
ncplane_set_fg_rgb
Same, but with rgb assembled into a channel (i.e. lower 24 bits).
ncplane_set_fg_rgb8
Set the current fore/background color using RGB specifications. If the terminal does not support directly-specified 3x8b cells (24-bit “TrueColor”, indicated by the “RGB” terminfo capability), the provided values will be interpreted in some lossy fashion. None of r, g, or b may exceed 255. “HP-like” terminals require setting foreground and background at the same time using “color pairs”; Notcurses will manage color pairs transparently.
ncplane_set_fg_rgb8_clipped
ncplane_set_name
Set the plane’s name (may be NULL), replacing any current name.
ncplane_set_resizecb
Replace the ncplane’s existing resizecb with ‘resizecb’ (which may be NULL). The standard plane’s resizecb may not be changed.
ncplane_set_scrolling
All planes are created with scrolling disabled. Scrolling can be dynamically controlled with ncplane_set_scrolling(). Returns true if scrolling was previously enabled, or false if it was disabled.
ncplane_set_styles
Set the specified style bits for the ncplane ‘n’, whether they’re actively supported or not.
ncplane_set_userptr
Manipulate the opaque user pointer associated with this plane. ncplane_set_userptr() returns the previous userptr after replacing it with ‘opaque’. the others simply return the userptr.
ncplane_stain
Set the given channels throughout the specified region, keeping content and channels unchanged. The upper left corner is at ‘y’, ‘x’, and -1 may be specified to indicate the cursor’s position in that dimension. The area is specified by ‘ylen’, ‘xlen’, and 0 may be specified to indicate everything remaining to the right and below, respectively. It is an error for any coordinate to be outside the plane. Returns the number of cells set, or -1 on failure.
ncplane_styles
Get the current styling for the ncplane ‘n’.
ncplane_translate
provided a coordinate relative to the origin of ‘src’, map it to the same absolute coordinate relative to the origin of ‘dst’. either or both of ‘y’ and ‘x’ may be NULL. if ‘dst’ is NULL, it is taken to be the standard plane.
ncplane_translate_abs
Fed absolute ‘y’/‘x’ coordinates, determine whether that coordinate is within the ncplane ‘n’. If not, return false. If so, return true. Either way, translate the absolute coordinates relative to ‘n’. If the point is not within ‘n’, these coordinates will not be within the dimensions of the plane.

Destructively write the provided EGC to the current cursor location. Move the cursor as necessary, scrolling if applicable.
ncreel_add
Add a new nctablet to the provided ncreel ‘nr’, having the callback object ‘opaque’. Neither, either, or both of ‘after’ and ‘before’ may be specified. If neither is specified, the new tablet can be added anywhere on the reel. If one or the other is specified, the tablet will be added before or after the specified tablet. If both are specified, the tablet will be added to the resulting location, assuming it is valid (after->next == before->prev); if it is not valid, or there is any other error, NULL will be returned.
ncreel_create
Take over the ncplane ‘nc’ and use it to draw a reel according to ‘popts’. The plane will be destroyed by ncreel_destroy(); this transfers ownership.

ncreel_next
Change focus to the next tablet, if one exists
ncreel_offer_input
Offer input ‘ni’ to the ncreel ‘nr’. If it’s relevant, this function returns true, and the input ought not be processed further. If it’s irrelevant to the reel, false is returned. Relevant inputs include:
ncreel_plane
Returns the ncplane on which this ncreel lives.
ncreel_prev
Change focus to the previous tablet, if one exists
ncreel_redraw
Redraw the ncreel ‘nr’ in its entirety. The reel will be cleared, and tablets will be lain out, using the focused tablet as a fulcrum. Tablet drawing callbacks will be invoked for each visible tablet.
ncreel_tabletcount
Return the number of nctablets in the ncreel ‘nr’.
ncselector_additem
Dynamically add or delete items. It is usually sufficient to supply a static list of items via ncselector_options->items.
ncselector_create
ncselector_delitem
ncselector_destroy
Destroy the ncselector.
ncselector_nextitem
ncselector_offer_input
Offer the input to the ncselector. If it’s relevant, this function returns true, and the input ought not be processed further. If it’s irrelevant to the selector, false is returned. Relevant inputs include:

ncselector_previtem
Move up or down in the list. A reference to the newly-selected item is returned, or NULL if there are no items in the list.
ncselector_selected
Return reference to the selected option, or NULL if there are no items.
ncstrwidth
Returns the number of columns occupied by the longest valid prefix of a multibyte (UTF-8) string. If an invalid character is encountered, -1 will be returned, and the number of valid bytes and columns will be written into *|validbytes| and *|validwidth| (assuming them non-NULL). If the entire string is valid, *|validbytes| and *|validwidth| reflect the entire string.
ncsubproc_createv
see exec(2). p-types use $PATH. e-type passes environment vars.
ncsubproc_createvp
ncsubproc_createvpe
ncsubproc_destroy
ncsubproc_plane
nctab_cb
Returns the tab callback.
nctab_move
Move ‘t’ after ‘after’ (if not NULL) and before ‘before’ (if not NULL). If both ‘after’ and ‘before’ are NULL, the function returns -1, otherwise it returns 0.
nctab_move_left
Move ‘t’ to the right by one tab, looping around to become the last tab if needed.
nctab_move_right
Move ‘t’ to the right by one tab, looping around to become leftmost if needed.
nctab_name
Returns the tab name. This is not a copy and it should not be stored.
nctab_name_width
Returns the width (in columns) of the tab’s name.
nctab_next
Returns the tab to the right of ‘t’. This does not change which tab is selected.
nctab_prev
Returns the tab to the left of ‘t’. This does not change which tab is selected.
nctab_set_cb
Set the tab callback function for ‘t’. Returns the previous tab callback.
nctab_set_name
Change the name of ‘t’. Returns -1 if ‘newname’ is NULL, and 0 otherwise.

Set the user pointer of ‘t’. Returns the previous user pointer.
nctab_userptr
Returns the tab’s user pointer.
nctabbed_add
Add a new tab to ‘nt’ with the given tab callback, name, and user pointer. If both ‘before’ and ‘after’ are NULL, the tab is inserted after the selected tab. Otherwise, it gets put after ‘after’ (if not NULL) and before ‘before’ (if not NULL). If both ‘after’ and ‘before’ are given, they must be two neighboring tabs (the tab list is circular, so the last tab is immediately before the leftmost tab), otherwise the function returns NULL. If ‘name’ is NULL or a string containing illegal characters, the function returns NULL. On all other failures the function also returns NULL. If it returns NULL, none of the arguments are modified, and the widget state is not altered.
nctabbed_channels
Write the channels for tab headers, the selected tab header, and the separator to ‘*hdrchan’, ‘*selchan’, and ‘*sepchan’ respectively.
nctabbed_content_plane
Returns the tab content plane.
nctabbed_create
Creates a new nctabbed widget, associated with the given ncplane ‘n’, and with additional options given in ‘opts’. When ‘opts’ is NULL, it acts as if it were called with an all-zero opts. The widget takes ownership of ‘n’, and destroys it when the widget is destroyed. Returns the newly created widget. Returns NULL on failure, also destroying ‘n’.
nctabbed_del
Remove a tab ‘t’ from ‘nt’. Its neighboring tabs become neighbors to each other. If ‘t’ if the selected tab, the tab after ‘t’ becomes selected. Likewise if ‘t’ is the leftmost tab, the tab after ‘t’ becomes leftmost. If ‘t’ is the only tab, there will no more be a selected or leftmost tab, until a new tab is added. Returns -1 if ‘t’ is NULL, and 0 otherwise.
nctabbed_destroy
Destroy an nctabbed widget. All memory belonging to ‘nt’ is deallocated, including all tabs and their names. The plane associated with ‘nt’ is also destroyed. Calling this with NULL does nothing.
nctabbed_ensure_selected_header_visible
Make sure the tab header of the currently selected tab is at least partially visible. (by rotating tabs until at least one column is displayed) Does nothing if there are no tabs.
nctabbed_leftmost
Returns the leftmost tab, or NULL if there are no tabs.
nctabbed_next
Select the tab after the currently selected tab, and return the newly selected tab. Returns NULL if there are no tabs.
nctabbed_plane
Returns the plane associated to ‘nt’.
nctabbed_prev
Select the tab before the currently selected tab, and return the newly selected tab. Returns NULL if there are no tabs.
nctabbed_redraw
Redraw the widget. This calls the tab callback of the currently selected tab to draw tab contents, and draws tab headers. The tab content plane is not modified by this function, apart from resizing the plane is necessary.
nctabbed_rotate
Rotate the tabs of ‘nt’ right by ‘amt’ tabs, or ‘-amt’ tabs left if ‘amt’ is negative. Tabs are rotated only by changing the leftmost tab; the selected tab stays the same. If there are no tabs, nothing happens.
nctabbed_select
Change the selected tab to be ‘t’. Returns the previously selected tab.
nctabbed_selected
Returns the currently selected tab, or NULL if there are no tabs.
nctabbed_separator
Returns the tab separator. This is not a copy and it should not be stored. This can be NULL, if the separator was set to NULL in ncatbbed_create() or nctabbed_set_separator().
nctabbed_separator_width
Returns the tab separator width, or zero if there is no separator.
nctabbed_set_hdrchan
Set the tab headers channel for ‘nt’.
nctabbed_set_selchan

Access the ncplane associated with nctablet ‘t’, if one exists.
nctablet_userptr
Returns a pointer to a user pointer associated with this nctablet.
nctree_add
Insert |add| into the nctree |n| at |spec|. The path up to the last element must already exist. If an item already exists at the path, it will be moved to make room for |add|.
nctree_create
|opts| may not be NULL, since it is necessary to define a callback function.
nctree_del
Delete the item at |spec|, including any subitems.
nctree_destroy
Destroy the nctree.
nctree_focused
Return the focused item, if any items are present. This is not a copy; be careful to use it only for the duration of a critical section.
nctree_goto
Go to the item specified by the array |spec| (a spec is a series of unsigned values, each identifying a subelement in the hierarchy thus far, terminated by UINT_MAX). If the spec is invalid, NULL is returned, and the depth of the first invalid spec is written to *|failspec|. Otherwise, the true depth is written to *|failspec|, and the curry is returned (|failspec| is necessary because the curry could itself be NULL).
nctree_next
Change focus to the next item.
nctree_offer_input
Offer input ‘ni’ to the nctree ‘n’. If it’s relevant, this function returns true, and the input ought not be processed further. If it’s irrelevant to the tree, false is returned. Relevant inputs include:
nctree_plane
Returns the ncplane on which this nctree lives.
nctree_prev
Change focus to the previous item.
nctree_redraw
Redraw the nctree ‘n’ in its entirety. The tree will be cleared, and items will be lain out, using the focused item as a fulcrum. Item-drawing callbacks will be invoked for each visible item.
ncuplot_add_sample
Add to or set the value corresponding to this x. If x is beyond the current x window, the x window is advanced to include x, and values passing beyond the window are lost. The first call will place the initial window. The plot will be redrawn, but notcurses_render() is not called.
ncuplot_create
Use the provided plane ‘n’ for plotting according to the options ‘opts’. The plot will make free use of the entirety of the plane. For domain autodiscovery, set miny == maxy == 0. ncuplot holds uint64_ts, while ncdplot holds doubles.
ncuplot_destroy
ncuplot_plane
Return a reference to the ncplot’s underlying ncplane.
ncuplot_sample
ncuplot_set_sample
ncvisual_at_yx
Get the specified pixel from the specified ncvisual.
ncvisual_blit
Render the decoded frame according to the provided options (which may be NULL). The plane used for rendering depends on vopts->n and vopts->flags. If NCVISUAL_OPTION_CHILDPLANE is set, vopts->n must not be NULL, and the plane will always be created as a child of vopts->n. If this flag is not set, and vopts->n is NULL, a new plane is created as root of a new pile. If the flag is not set and vopts->n is not NULL, we render to vopts->n. A subregion of the visual can be rendered using ‘begx’, ‘begy’, ‘lenx’, and ‘leny’. Negative values for any of these are an error. It is an error to specify any region beyond the boundaries of the frame. Returns the (possibly newly-created) plane to which we drew. Pixels may not be blitted to the standard plane.
ncvisual_decode
extract the next frame from an ncvisual. returns 1 on end of file, 0 on success, and -1 on failure.
ncvisual_decode_loop
decode the next frame ala ncvisual_decode(), but if we have reached the end, rewind to the first frame of the ncvisual. a subsequent ‘ncvisual_blit()’ will render the first frame, as if the ncvisual had been closed and reopened. the return values remain the same as those of ncvisual_decode().
ncvisual_destroy
Destroy an ncvisual. Rendered elements will not be disrupted, but the visual can be neither decoded nor rendered any further.
ncvisual_from_bgra
ncvisual_from_rgba(), but ‘bgra’ is arranged as BGRA. note that this is a byte-oriented layout, despite being bunched in 32-bit pixels; the lowest memory address ought be B, and A is reached by adding 3 to that address. It is an error if ‘rows’, ‘cols’, or ‘rowstride’ are not positive, if ‘rowstride’ is not a multiple of 4, or if ‘rowstride’ is less than ‘cols’ * 4.
ncvisual_from_file
Open a visual at ‘file’, extract a codec and parameters, decode the first image to memory.
ncvisual_from_palidx
ncvisual_from_rgba(), but ‘data’ is ‘pstride’-byte palette-indexed pixels, arranged in ‘rows’ lines of ‘rowstride’ bytes each, composed of ‘cols’ pixels. ‘palette’ is an array of at least ‘palsize’ ncchannels. It is an error if ‘rows’, ‘cols’, ‘rowstride’, or ‘pstride’ are not positive, if ‘rowstride’ is not a multiple of ‘pstride’, or if ‘rowstride’ is less than ‘cols’ * ‘pstride’.
ncvisual_from_plane
Promote an ncplane ‘n’ to an ncvisual. The plane may contain only spaces, half blocks, and full blocks. The latter will be checked, and any other glyph will result in a NULL being returned. This function exists so that planes can be subjected to ncvisual transformations. If possible, it’s better to create the ncvisual from memory using ncvisual_from_rgba(). Lengths of 0 are interpreted to mean “all available remaining area”.
ncvisual_from_rgb_loose
ncvisual_from_rgba(), but the pixels are 4-byte RGBx. A is filled in throughout using ‘alpha’. It is an error if ‘rows’, ‘cols’, or ‘rowstride’ are not positive, if ‘rowstride’ is not a multiple of 4, or if ‘rowstride’ is less than ‘cols’ * 4.
ncvisual_from_rgb_packed
ncvisual_from_rgba(), but the pixels are 3-byte RGB. A is filled in throughout using ‘alpha’. It is an error if ‘rows’, ‘rowstride’, or ‘cols’ is not positive, if ‘rowstride’ is not a multiple of 3, or if ‘rowstride’ is less than ‘cols’ * 3.
ncvisual_from_rgba
Prepare an ncvisual, and its underlying plane, based off RGBA content in memory at ‘rgba’. ‘rgba’ is laid out as ‘rows’ lines, each of which is ‘rowstride’ bytes in length. Each line has ‘cols’ 32-bit 8bpc RGBA pixels followed by possible padding (there will be ‘rowstride’ - ‘cols’ * 4 bytes of padding). The total size of ‘rgba’ is thus (‘rows’ * ‘rowstride’) bytes, of which (‘rows’ * ‘cols’ * 4) bytes are actual non-padding data. It is an error if any argument is not positive, if ‘rowstride’ is not a multiple of 4, or if ‘rowstride’ is less than ‘cols’ * 4.
ncvisual_from_sixel
Construct an ncvisual from a nul-terminated Sixel control sequence.
ncvisual_geom
all-purpose ncvisual geometry solver. one or both of ‘nc’ and ‘n’ must be non-NULL. if ‘nc’ is NULL, only pixy/pixx will be filled in, with the true pixel geometry of ‘n’. if ‘n’ is NULL, only cdimy/cdimx, blitter, scaley/scalex, and maxpixely/maxpixelx are filled in. cdimy/cdimx and maxpixely/maxpixelx are only ever filled in if we know them.
ncvisual_media_defblitter
Get the default media (not plot) blitter for this environment when using the specified scaling method. Currently, this means:
ncvisual_polyfill_yx
Polyfill at the specified location within the ncvisual ‘n’, using ‘rgba’.
ncvisual_resize
Scale the visual to ‘rows’ X ‘columns’ pixels, using the best scheme available. This is a lossy transformation, unless the size is unchanged.
ncvisual_resize_noninterpolative
Scale the visual to ‘rows’ X ‘columns’ pixels, using non-interpolative (naive) scaling. No new colors will be introduced as a result.
ncvisual_rotate
Rotate the visual ‘rads’ radians. Only M_PI/2 and -M_PI/2 are supported at the moment, but this might change in the future.
ncvisual_set_yx
Set the specified pixel in the specified ncvisual.
ncvisual_simple_streamer
Shut up and display my frames! Provide as an argument to ncvisual_stream(). If you’d like subtitles to be decoded, provide an ncplane as the curry. If the curry is NULL, subtitles will not be displayed.
ncvisual_stream
Stream the entirety of the media, according to its own timing. Blocking, obviously. streamer may be NULL; it is otherwise called for each frame, and its return value handled as outlined for streamcb. If streamer() returns non-zero, the stream is aborted, and that value is returned. By convention, return a positive number to indicate intentional abort from within streamer(). ‘timescale’ allows the frame duration time to be scaled. For a visual naturally running at 30FPS, a ‘timescale’ of 0.1 will result in 300FPS, and a ‘timescale’ of 10 will result in 3FPS. It is an error to supply ‘timescale’ less than or equal to 0.
ncvisual_subtitle_plane
If a subtitle ought be displayed at this time, return a new plane (bound to ‘parent’ containing the subtitle, which might be text or graphics (depending on the input format).
notcurses_accountname
Returns a heap-allocated copy of the user name under which we are running.
notcurses_at_yx
Retrieve the contents of the specified cell as last rendered. Returns the EGC or NULL on error. This EGC must be free()d by the caller. The stylemask and channels are written to ‘stylemask’ and ‘channels’, respectively.

notcurses_core_init
The same as notcurses_init(), but without any multimedia functionality, allowing for a svelter binary. Link with notcurses-core if this is used.
notcurses_cursor_disable
Disable the hardware cursor. It is an error to call this while the cursor is already disabled.
notcurses_cursor_enable
Enable or disable the terminal’s cursor, if supported, placing it at ‘y’, ‘x’. Immediate effect (no need for a call to notcurses_render()). It is an error if ‘y’, ‘x’ lies outside the standard plane. Can be called while already visible to move the cursor.
notcurses_cursor_yx
Get the current location of the terminal’s cursor, whether visible or not.
notcurses_debug
Dump selected Notcurses state to the supplied ‘debugfp’. Output is freeform, newline-delimited, and subject to change. It includes geometry of all planes, from all piles. No line has more than 80 columns’ worth of output.
notcurses_default_background
Get the default background color, if it is known. Returns -1 on error (unknown background). On success, returns 0, writing the RGB value to ‘bg’ (if non-NULL) and setting ‘bgtrans’ high iff the background color is treated as transparent.
notcurses_default_foreground
Get the default foreground color, if it is known. Returns -1 on error (unknown foreground). On success, returns 0, writing the RGB value to ‘fg’ (if non-NULL)
notcurses_detected_terminal

notcurses_drop_planes
Destroy all ncplanes other than the stdplane.
notcurses_enter_alternate_screen
Shift to the alternate screen, if available. If already using the alternate screen, this returns 0 immediately. If the alternate screen is not available, this returns -1 immediately. Entering the alternate screen turns off scrolling for the standard plane.
notcurses_get
Read a UTF-32-encoded Unicode codepoint from input. This might only be part of a larger EGC. Provide a NULL ‘ts’ to block at length, and otherwise a timespec specifying an absolute deadline calculated using CLOCK_MONOTONIC. Returns a single Unicode code point, or a synthesized special key constant, or (uint32_t)-1 on error. Returns 0 on a timeout. If an event is processed, the return value is the ‘id’ field from that event. ‘ni’ may be NULL.
notcurses_getvec
Acquire up to ‘vcount’ ncinputs at the vector ‘ni’. The number read will be returned, or -1 on error without any reads, 0 on timeout.
notcurses_hostname
Returns a heap-allocated copy of the local host name.
notcurses_init
Initialize a Notcurses context on the connected terminal at ‘fp’. ‘fp’ must be a tty. You’ll usually want stdout. NULL can be supplied for ‘fp’, in which case /dev/tty will be opened. Returns NULL on error, including any failure initializing terminfo.
notcurses_inputready_fd
Get a file descriptor suitable for input event poll()ing. When this descriptor becomes available, you can call notcurses_get_nblock(), and input ought be ready. This file descriptor is not necessarily the file descriptor associated with stdin (but it might be!).
notcurses_leave_alternate_screen
Exit the alternate screen. Immediately returns 0 if not currently using the alternate screen.
notcurses_lex_blitter
Lex a blitter.
notcurses_lex_margins

notcurses_linesigs_enable
Restore signals originating from the terminal’s line discipline, i.e. SIGINT (^C), SIGQUIT (^), and SIGTSTP (^Z), if disabled.
notcurses_mice_enable
Enable mice events according to ‘eventmask’; an eventmask of 0 will disable all mice tracking. On failure, -1 is returned. On success, 0 is returned, and mouse events will be published to notcurses_get().
notcurses_osversion
Returns a heap-allocated copy of human-readable OS name and version.
notcurses_palette_size
Returns the number of simultaneous colors claimed to be supported, or 1 if there is no color support. Note that several terminal emulators advertise more colors than they actually support, downsampling internally.
notcurses_refresh
Refresh the physical screen to match what was last rendered (i.e., without reflecting any changes since the last call to notcurses_render()). This is primarily useful if the screen is externally corrupted, or if an NCKEY_RESIZE event has been read and you’re not yet ready to render. The current screen geometry is returned in ‘y’ and ‘x’, if they are not NULL.
notcurses_stats
Acquire an atomic snapshot of the Notcurses object’s stats.
notcurses_stats_alloc
Allocate an ncstats object. Use this rather than allocating your own, since future versions of Notcurses might enlarge this structure.
notcurses_stats_reset
Reset all cumulative stats (immediate ones, such as fbbytes, are not reset), first copying them into |*stats| (if |stats| is not NULL).
notcurses_stdplane

notcurses_stdplane_const
notcurses_stop
Destroy a Notcurses context. A NULL ‘nc’ is a no-op.
notcurses_str_blitter
Get the name of a blitter.
notcurses_str_scalemode
Get the name of a scaling mode.
notcurses_supported_styles
Returns a 16-bit bitmask of supported curses-style attributes (NCSTYLE_UNDERLINE, NCSTYLE_BOLD, etc.) The attribute is only indicated as supported if the terminal can support it together with color. For more information, see the “ncv” capability in terminfo(5).
notcurses_ucs32_to_utf8
input functions like notcurses_get() return ucs32-encoded uint32_t. convert a series of uint32_t to utf8. result must be at least 4 bytes per input uint32_t (6 bytes per uint32_t will future-proof against Unicode expansion). the number of bytes used is returned, or -1 if passed illegal ucs32, or too small of a buffer.
notcurses_version
Get a human-readable string describing the running Notcurses version.
notcurses_version_components
Cannot be inline, as we want to get the versions of the actual Notcurses library we loaded, not what we compile against.

rand
Return a random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX inclusive.
realloc
Re-allocate the previously allocated block in PTR, making the new block SIZE bytes long. / / attribute_malloc is not used, because if realloc returns the same pointer that was passed to it, aliasing needs to be allowed between objects pointed by the old and new pointers.
recv
Read N bytes into BUF from socket FD. Returns the number read or -1 for errors.
recvfrom
Read N bytes into BUF through socket FD. If ADDR is not NULL, fill in *ADDR_LEN bytes of it with the address of the sender, and store the actual size of the address in *ADDR_LEN. Returns the number of bytes read or -1 for errors.

tempnam
Generate a unique temporary filename using up to five characters of PFX if it is not NULL. The directory to put this file in is searched for as follows: First the environment variable “TMPDIR” is checked. If it contains the name of a writable directory, that directory is used. If not and if DIR is not NULL, that value is checked. If that fails, P_tmpdir is tried and finally “/tmp”. The storage for the filename is allocated by `malloc’.

blkcnt_t
clock_t
Returned by `clock’.
clockid_t
Clock ID used in clock and timer functions.
dev_t
fadecb
Called for each fade iteration on ‘ncp’. If anything but 0 is returned, the fading operation ceases immediately, and that value is propagated out. The recommended absolute display time target is passed in ‘tspec’.
fpos_t
The tag name of this struct is _G_fpos_t to preserve historic C++ mangled names for functions taking fpos_t arguments. That name should not be used in new code.
fsblkcnt_t
fsfilcnt_t
gid_t
id_t
in_addr_t
Internet address.
in_port_t
Type to represent a port.
ino_t

Signed.
int_least16_t
int_least32_t
int_least64_t
intmax_t
Largest integral types.
key_t
ncalign_e
Alignment within a plane or terminal. Left/right-justified, or centered.
ncblitter_e
we never blit full blocks, but instead spaces (more efficient) with the background set to the desired foreground. these need be kept in the same order as the blitters[] definition in lib/blit.c.
ncdirectf
ncdirectv
ncfdplane_callback
ncfdplane_done_cb
ncintype_e
ncloglevel_e
These log levels consciously map cleanly to those of libav; Notcurses itself does not use this full granularity. The log level does not affect the opening and closing banners, which can be disabled via the notcurses_option struct’s ‘suppress_banner’. Note that if stderr is connected to the same terminal on which we’re rendering, any kind of logging will disrupt the output (which is undesirable). The “default” zero value is NCLOGLEVEL_PANIC.
ncpixelimpl_e
pixel blitting implementations. informative only; don’t special-case based off any of this information!
ncscale_e
How to scale an ncvisual during rendering. NCSCALE_NONE will apply no scaling. NCSCALE_SCALE scales a visual to the plane’s size, maintaining aspect ratio. NCSCALE_STRETCH stretches and scales the image in an attempt to fill the entirety of the plane. NCSCALE_NONE_HIRES and NCSCALE_SCALE_HIRES behave like their counterparts, but admit blitters which don’t preserve aspect ratio.
ncstreamcb
Called for each frame rendered from ‘ncv’. If anything but 0 is returned, the streaming operation ceases immediately, and that value is propagated out. The recommended absolute display time target is passed in ‘tspec’.
nlink_t
off_t
pid_t
register_t
sa_family_t
POSIX.1g specifies this type name for the `sa_family’ member.
sig_atomic_t
An integral type that can be modified atomically, without the possibility of a signal arriving in the middle of the operation.
sigset_t
A set of signals to be blocked, unblocked, or waited for.
socklen_t
suseconds_t
tabcb
Tab content drawing callback. Takes the tab it was associated to, the ncplane on which tab content is to be drawn, and the user pointer of the tab. It is called during nctabbed_redraw().
tabletcb
Tablet draw callback, provided a tablet (from which the ncplane and userptr may be extracted), and a bool indicating whether output ought be drawn from the top (true) or bottom (false). Returns non-negative count of output lines, which must be less than or equal to ncplane_dim_y(nctablet_plane(t)).
time_t
timer_t
Timer ID returned by `timer_create’.
u_int8_t
These were defined by ISO C without the first `_’.
u_int16_t
u_int32_t
u_int64_t
uid_t
uint_fast8_t
Unsigned.
uint_fast16_t
uint_fast32_t
uint_fast64_t
