5.7.1 Termios introduction

Termios functions form the bulk of the (ncurses extra) library. These are procedures that can query and modify the terminal attributes, line control, and baud rate of scheme ports that use file descriptors.

There is a constant %has-termios that can be use to check if, at configure time, the library was compiled to include the termios capabilities.

Constant: %has-termios

Is #t if the termios functionality is present. #f otherwise.
