The
intrflush(3curses)
function specifies whether pressing an interrupt key
(interrupt, suspend or quit) will flush the input buffer associated with
the current screen.
If the value of bf is TRUE, then flushing of the
output buffer associated with the current screen will
occur when an interrupt key (interrupt, suspend, or
quit) is pressed. If the value of bf is FALSE then no
flushing of the buffer will occur when an interrupt
key is pressed
The default for the option is inherited
from the display driver settings. The win argument is ignored.
Return value
Upon successful completion,
intrflush(3curses)
returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.
Errors
No errors are defined.
Usage
The same effect is achieved outside Curses using the NOFLSH local mode flag
specified in the XBD specification (General Terminal Interface).
