On a related note, I'm using the curses library in an application (so
I'm a dinosaur), and the system has hijacked F1 through F4. I can use
all of the other function keys. Anybody know a way for me to gain
control of F1 through F4, or to at least disable them so an accidental
press of F1 doesn't crash my program?
What _do_ those keys do? I've been reading this thread and the only
fkeys of mine that do anything are f10-f12 which I've mapped to apple
scripts (or something, it's been a while) to control iTunes.
Also, what keycode does the large "delete" key return? Looking now at
the curs_getch(3X) man page, it's not KEY_DC and it's not
KEY_BACKSPACE.
Anyone know?
Looking at some code I wrote a few years ago, it looks like it sends
0x7f which should be del as defined by ascii.
