These functions are extensions to the curses library which do not fit
easily into other categories.
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-curses_version">curses_version</a></H3><PRE>
Use <STRONG>curses_version</STRONG> to get the version number, including patch level of
the library, e.g., <STRONG>5.0.19991023</STRONG>
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-use_extended_names">use_extended_names</a></H3><PRE>
The <STRONG>use_extended_names</STRONG> function controls whether the calling
application is able to use user-defined or nonstandard names which may
be compiled into the terminfo description, i.e., via the terminfo or
termcap interfaces. Normally these names are available for use, since
the essential decision is made by using the <STRONG>-x</STRONG> option of <STRONG>tic</STRONG> to compile
extended terminal definitions. However you can disable this feature to
ensure compatibility with other implementations of curses.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
<STRONG>curses_version</STRONG> returns a pointer to static memory; you should not free
this in your application.
<STRONG>use_extended_names</STRONG> returns the previous state, allowing you to save
this and restore it.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
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.
