I've been trying to teach myself ncurses and I'm loving it so far. However, I'm trying to write a small little text editor like pico or nano. I've got it set up fairly well so far. I created a function to map the keys. No matter what I do I can not get a response from KEY_ENTER. Whenever I press it it just goes to the beginning of the currently line that I'm on. I've tried using raw(); and using 13 instead of "KEY_ENTER" no luck. All the other keys respond as expected. I would appreciate any advice. I've been staring at this trying to make it work forever. Thanks!
void keymaps(){
int ch;
keypad(stdscr,TRUE);
case KEY_UP:
addstr("Up\n");
break;
case KEY_LEFT:
addstr("Left\n");
break;
case KEY_RIGHT:
addstr("Right\n");
break;
case KEY_BACKSPACE:
delch();
break;
case Key_Enter:
addstr("You pressed Enter\n");
default:
break;
}
refresh();
} while(ch != KEY_HOME);
}
Try 10 as ASCII value ... worked for me on ncurses.Also please update the actual code because this code that you put is wrong by syntax.
