void use_env(bool boolval);
PARAMETERS
boolval Is a Boolean expression.
DESCRIPTION
The use_env() function specifies the technique by which the implementa‐
tion determines the size of the screen. If boolval is FALSE, the imple‐
mentation uses the values of lines and columns specified in the ter‐
minfo database. If boolval is TRUE, the implementation uses the LINES
and COLUMNS environmental variables. The initial value is TRUE.
Any call to use_env() must precede calls to initscr(3XCURSES),
newterm(3XCURSES), or setupterm(3XCURSES).
RETURN VALUES
The use_env() function does not return a value.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
