1 Keyboard-Interface
  SLang's keyboard interface is designed to allow one to read a character
  at a time in a system independent manner.  To initialize the interface,
  one must first call the function `SLang_init_tty'.  Before exiting the
  program, the function `SLang_reset_tty' must be called to restore the
  keyboard interface to its original state.  This is particularly true for
  MSDOS since INT-9 is hooked by S-Lang.
 
2 Functions
  
3 init_tty

  Prototype: int SLang_init_tty (int abort_char, int flow_ctrl, int opost);

  This function must be called to initialize the tty for single character
  input.  The first parameter `abort_char' must lie in the range 0-255 and
  is used as an abort character.  By default, pressing this character sets
  the global variable `SLang_Error' to USER_BREAK.  See help on the function 
  `SLang_set_abort_signal' to change the default action.

  If the second parameter `flow_ctrl' is non-zero, flow control is enabled.

  If the third parmeter `opost' is zero, output processing is NOT turned on.
  A value of zero is required for SLang's screen management routines (SLsmg)
  to work properly. 

  This function returns 0 upon success. In addition, if the global variable
  SLang_TT_Baud_Rate == 0 when this function is called, SLang will attempt
  to determine the terminals baud rate and set this variable accordingly. As
  far as the SLang library is concerned, if SLang_TT_Baud_Rate is less than
  or equal to zero, the baud rate is effectively infinite.

3 reset_tty

   Prototype:  void SLang_reset_tty (void);
   
   This function must be called to reset the tty to the state the terminal
   was in before a previous call to `SLang_init_tty'.

3 getkey

  Prototype: unsigned int SLang_getkey (void);

  This function returns a single key from the tty.  If the read fails,
  0xFFFF is returned.  Before attempting to use this function, one myust
  first call SLang_init_tty to initialize the terminal.
  
  If the abort character is pressed while this function is called, it will
  return the value of the abort character.  In addition, the global variable
  SLKeyBoard_Quit will be set and SLang_Error will will be set to USER_BREAK
  unless the variable SLang_Ignore_User_Abort is non-zero.

3 unget_keystring

  Prototype: void SLang_ungetkey_string (unsigned char *buf, int buflen);

3 buffer_keystring

  Prototype: void SLang_buffer_keystring (unsigned char *buf, int buflen);

3 ungetkey

  Prototype: void SLang_ungetkey (unsigned char ch);
  
3 flush_input  

  Prototype: void SLang_flush_input (void);
  
3 input_pending  

  Prototype int SLang_input_pending (int tsecs);
  
3 set_abort_signal
 
  Prototype: void SLang_set_abort_signal (void (*f)(int));
  
  If SIGINT is generated, the function p1 will be called.  If `f' is NULL
  the SLang default signal handler is called.  This sets SLang_Error to 
  USER_BREAK.  I suspect most users will simply want to pass NULL.
  
2 Variables
3 Abort_Char

  int SLang_Abort_Char;
  The value of the character (0-255) used to trigger SIGINT
  
3 Ignore_User_Abort

  int SLang_Ignore_User_Abort;
  If non-zero, pressing the abort character will not result in USER_BREAK
  SLang_Error.
 
3 KeyBoard_Quit

  volatile int SLKeyBoard_Quit

3 TT_Baud_Rate

  int SLang_TT_Baud_Rate;
  
  If this value is zero before SLang_init_tty is called, after the call, it
  will be set to the baud rate if the terminal on systems which support it.

1Screen_Management
 S-Lang's screen management routines are located in the slsmg.c file.  All
 exported functions and variables are prefixed by `SLsmg', e.g., `SLsmg_cls'.
 The screen management code uses the `SLtt' routines for writing output to
 the terminal.

 To initialize the screen management system, call `SLtt_get_terminfo' first
 to initialize the display system. Then call `SLsmg_init_smg' to initialize
 the SLsmg routines.  If you are going to read characters from the keyboard,
 it is also a good idea to initialize the tty at this point via the
 SLang_init_tty function (See `Keyboard'). 

 Before exiting the program, call the approriate routines to reset the
 terminal and display system.  Basically, your program will look like
 something like:
\begin{verbatim}
 #include "slang.h"
 
 int main ()
 {
    SLtt_get_terminfo ();
    SLang_init_tty (7, 0, 0);
    SLsmg_init_smg ();
    
    /* do stuff .... */
    
    SLsmg_reset_smg ();
    SLang_reset_tty ();
    return 0;
 }
\end{verbatim}

1Searching-Functions
 The S-Lang library incorporates two types of searches: Regular expression
 pattern matching and ordinary searching.
2Regular-Expressions

             !!! No documentation available yet !!!

2Simple-Searches
 The routines for ordinary searching are defined in the `slsearch.c' file.
 To use these routines, simply include "slang.h" in your program and simply
 call the appropriate routines.
 
 The searches can go in either a forward or backward direction and can
 either be case or case insensitive.  The region that is searched may
 contain null characters (ASCII 0) however, the search string cannot in the
 current implementation.  In addition the length of the string to be found
 is currently limited to 256 characters.
 
 Before searching, the function `SLsearch_init' must first be called to
 ``preprocess'' the search string.
3initialization
 The function `SLsearch_init' must be called before a search can take place.
 Its prototype is:
 
    int SLsearch_init (char *key, int dir, int case_sens, SLsearch_Type *st);
    
 Here `key' is the string to be searched for.  `dir' specifies the direction
 of the search: a value greater than zero is used for searching forward and
 a value less than zero is used for searching backward.  The parameter
 `case_sens' specifies whether the search is case sensitive or not.  A
 non-zero value indicates that case is important.  `st' is a pointer to a
 structure of type `SLsearch_Type' defined in "slang.h".  This structure is
 initialized by this routine and must be passed to `SLsearch' when the
 search is actually performed.
 
 This routine returns the length of the string to be searched for.

3SLsearch
 Prototype: unsigned char *SLsearch (unsigned char *pmin, unsigned char *pmax, 
                                     SLsearch_Type *st);
				     
 This function performs the search defined by a previous call to
 `SLsearch_init'  over a region specified by the pointers `pmin' and `pmax'.
 
 It returns a pointer to the start of the match if successful or it will
 return NULL if a match was not found.
