This is a case-sensitive comparison. The symbolic value is written to the variable addressed by \fIsym\fP. This function is a more general form of \fBtermkey_keyname2sym\fP(3) because it can recognise a symbolic key name within a longer string, returning a pointer to the remainder of the input after the key name. -.PP -Because the key names are stored in an array indexed by the symbol number, this function has to perform a linear search of the names. Use of this function should be restricted to converting key names into symbolic values during a program's initialisation, so that efficient comparisons can be done while it is running. -.SH "RETURN VALUE" -\fBtermkey_lookup_keyname\fP() returns a pointer to the first character after a recognised name, or \fBNULL\fP if the string does not begin with the name of a recognised symbolic key. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR termkey_get_keyname (3), -.BR termkey_keyname2sym (3), -.BR termkey_strpkey (3), -.BR termkey (7) |
