TERMKEY_KEYNAME2SYM
NAMESYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
RETURN VALUE
SEE ALSO
NAME
termkey_keyname2sym - look up a symbolic key value for a string name
SYNOPSIS
#include <termkey.h>
TermKeySym termkey_keyname2sym(TermKey * tk , const char * keyname );
Link with -ltermkey .
DESCRIPTION
termkey_keyname2sym () looks up the symbolic key value represented by the given string name. This is a case-sensitive comparison. If the given name is not found, TERMKEY_SYM_UNKNOWN is returned instead. This function is the inverse of termkey_get_keyname (3), and is a more specific form of termkey_lookup_keyname (3) which only recognises names as complete strings.
Because the key names are stored in an array indexed by the symbol number, this function has to perform a linear search of the names. Use of this function should be restricted to converting key names into symbolic values during a program’s initialisation, so that efficient comparisons can be done while it is running.
RETURN VALUE
termkey_keyname2sym () returns a symbolic key constant, or TERMKEY_SYM_UNKNOWN .
