keyok(3X)							     keyok(3X)

NAME
       keyok - enable or disable a keycode

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<curses.h>

       int keyok(int keycode, bool enable);

DESCRIPTION
       This  is	an extension to	the curses library.  It	permits	an application
       to disable specific keycodes, rather than use the  keypad  function  to
       disable all keycodes.  Keys that	have been disabled can be re-enabled.

RETURN VALUE
       The  keycode  must  be  greater than zero, else ERR is returned.	 If it
       does not	correspond to a	defined	key, then ERR is returned.  If the en-
       able parameter is true, then the	key must have been disabled, and  vice
       versa.  Otherwise, the function returns OK.

PORTABILITY
       These  routines	are  specific  to ncurses.  They were not supported on
       Version 7, BSD or System	V implementations.  It is recommended that any
       code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.

SEE ALSO
       define_key(3X).
