 # Direct mode
+
+Direct mode allows you to use Notcurses together with standard I/O. While
+the cursor can still be moved arbitrarily, direct mode is intended to be used
+with newline-delimited, scrolling output. Direct mode has no concept of frame
+rendering; output is intended to appear immediately (subject to buffering). It
+is still necessary to have a valid `TERM` environment variable identifying a
+valid terminfo database entry for the running terminal.
+
+Enter direct mode with a call to `ncdirect_init()`.
