</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>keyok</STRONG> <EM>ncurses</EM> extension permits a <EM>curses</EM> application to disable a
function key <EM>key-code</EM> returned by <STRONG><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">wgetch(3x)</A></STRONG> (wide-character API users:
<STRONG><A HREF="curs_get_wch.3x.html">wget_wch(3x)</A></STRONG>). Key codes that have been disabled can be re-enabled.
<EM>bf</EM> selects the desired enablement status. This operation is more fine-
grained than calling <STRONG><A HREF="curs_inopts.3x.html">keypad(3x)</A></STRONG>, which affects <EM>all</EM> function keys.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
<STRONG>keyok</STRONG> returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> if
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <EM>key-code</EM> is nonpositive,
<STRONG>o</STRONG> <EM>key-code</EM> is not a recognized value, or
<STRONG>o</STRONG> enablement of <EM>key-code</EM> is already in the desired state.
Otherwise, <STRONG>keyok</STRONG> returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-EXTENSIONS">EXTENSIONS</a></H2><PRE>
<STRONG>keyok</STRONG> is an <EM>ncurses</EM> extension.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
Applications employing <EM>ncurses</EM> extensions should condition their use on
the visibility of the <STRONG>NCURSES_VERSION</STRONG> preprocessor macro.
NetBSD <EM>curses</EM> since 2.0 (2004) supports <EM>keyok</EM>.
