SYNOPSIS

       #include <tickit.h>

       const char * tickit_term_ctlname(TickitTermCtl ctl);
       TickitTermCtl tickit_term_lookup_ctl(const char * name);

       TickitType tickit_term_ctltype(TickitTermCtl ctl);

       Link with -ltickit.

DESCRIPTION

       tickit_term_ctlname()  returns  the  name  of  the  given terminal control. These names are the lowercase
       strings given in tickit_term(7).

       tickit_term_lookup_ctl() returns the control constant for a given name. If the  name  is  not  recognised
       then -1 is returned.

       tickit_term_ctltype() returns the type of the given terminal control, as one of the following constants:

       TICKIT_TYPE_BOOL
              The value is an integer representing a simple boolean choice, where any nonzero value is true. Use
              tickit_term_setctl_int(3) and tickit_term_getctl_int(3).

       TICKIT_TYPE_INT
              The  value  is  an integer representing a quantity, or a value in some particular enumeration. Use
              tickit_term_setctl_int(3) and tickit_term_getctl_int(3).

       TICKIT_TYPE_STR
              The value is a string. Use tickit_term_setctl_str(3).

       For unrecognised control types, the function returns 0.

RETURN VALUE

       tickit_term_ctlname() returns a constant string  pointer.  tickit_term_lookup_ctl()  returns  an  control
       constant or -1. tickit_term_ctltype() returns a control type constant or 0.
