.SH DESCRIPTION
The following routines give low-level access
to various \fBcurses\fP capabilities.
These routines typically are used inside library routines.
-.SS def_prog_mode, def_shell_mode
-.PP
+.SS "def_prog_mode, def_shell_mode"
The \fBdef_prog_mode\fP and \fBdef_shell_mode\fP routines save the

+(in \fBcurses\fP) or \*(``shell\*(''
(not in \fBcurses\fP) state for use by the \fBreset_prog_mode\fP and
\fBreset_shell_mode\fP routines.
This is done automatically by \fBinitscr\fP.
There is one such save area for each screen context
allocated by \fBnewterm\fP.
-.SS reset_prog_mode, reset_shell_mode
-.PP
+.SS "reset_prog_mode, reset_shell_mode"
The \fBreset_prog_mode\fP and \fBreset_shell_mode\fP routines restore
the terminal to \*(``program\*('' (in \fBcurses\fP) or \*(``shell\*('' (out of
\fBcurses\fP) state.
These are done automatically by \fBendwin\fP(3X) and,
after an \fBendwin\fP, by \fBdoupdate\fP,
so they normally are not called.
-.SS resetty, savetty
-.PP
+.SS "resetty, savetty"
The \fBresetty\fP and \fBsavetty\fP routines save and restore the
state of the terminal modes.
\fBsavetty\fP saves the current state in
a buffer and \fBresetty\fP restores the state to what it was at the
last call to \fBsavetty\fP.
.SS getsyx
-.PP
The \fBgetsyx\fP routine returns the current coordinates
of the \fIvirtual screen\fP cursor in \fIy\fP and \fIx\fP.
