# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_supported_styles** returns a bitmask representing those styles
|
|
for which the terminal advertises support.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_palette_size** returns the size of the terminal's palette, used
|
|
for palette-indexed color. It will always return at least 1. This is
|
|
independent of RGB TrueColor support. No terminal is know to support
|
|
more than 256-indexed color.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_cantruecolor** returns **true** if the terminal advertises
|
|
support for RGB TrueColor. Note that the RGB APIs of Notcurses can be used
|
|
even in the absence of terminal RGB support (Notcurses will map the RGB
|
|
values to the palette).
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canfade** returns **true** if Notcurses has a means by which
|
|
it can effect fades.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canchangecolor** returns **true** if the terminal advertises
|
|
support for changing its palette entries.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canopen_images** returns **true** if Notcurses was built with
|
|
multimedia support.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canopen_video** returns **true** if Notcurses was built with
|
|
multimedia support capable of decoding videos.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canutf8** returns **true** if the configured locale uses
|
|
UTF-8 encoding, and the locale was successfully loaded.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_cansextant** returns **true** if the heuristics suggest
|
|
that the terminal can properly render Unicode 13 sextants.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canpixel** returns **true** if the terminal advertises
|
|
support for pixel graphics (e.g. Sixel). This function will not return **true**
|
|
until **notcurses_check_pixel_support** is called, and successfully returns.
|
|
|
|
**notcurses_canbraille** returns **true** if Braille is expected to work on the
|
|
terminal.
|
|
|
|
# NOTES
|
|
|
|
Some terminals advertise support for TrueColor, but then downsample or
|
|
otherwise degrade the provided RGB. In this case **notcurses_cantruecolor**
|
|
will return **true**, but the full spectrum will not be available.
