key_defined(3)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	   key_defined(3)

NAME
     key_defined - check if a keycode is defined

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int key_defined(const char *definition);

DESCRIPTION
     This is an extension to the curses library. It permits an
     application to determine if a string is currently bound to
     any keycode.

RETURN VALUE
     If the string is bound to a keycode, its value (greater than
     zero) is returned. If no keycode is bound, zero is returned.
     If the string conflicts with longer strings which are bound
     to keys, -1 is returned.

PORTABILITY
     These routines are specific to ncurses.  They were not sup-
     ported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.  It is
     recommended that any code depending on them be conditioned
     using NCURSES_VERSION.

SEE ALSO
     define_key(3).
