PORTABILITY

+       The  CCHARW_MAX  symbol is specific to ncurses.  X/Open Curses does not
+       provide details for the layout of the cchar_t structure.  It tells what
+       data are stored in it:
+
+       o   a spacing character (wchar_t, i.e., 32-bits).
+
+       o   non-spacing characters (again, wchar_t's).
+
+       o   attributes  (at  least  16 bits, inferred from the various ACS- and
+           WACS-flags).
+
+       o   color pair (at least 16 bits,  inferred  from  the  unsigned  short
+           type).
+
+       The non-spacing characters are optional, in the sense that zero or more
+       may be stored in a cchar_t.  XOpen/Curses specifies a limit:
+
+           Implementations may limit the number of non-spacing characters that
+           can  be  associated with a spacing character, provided any limit is
+           at least 5.
+
+       The Unix implementations at the time follow that limit:
+
+       o   AIX 4 and OSF1 4 use the same declaration with an array of  5  non-
+           spacing characters z and a single spacing character c.
+
+       o   HP-UX 10  uses  an  opaque  structure with 28 bytes, which is large
+           enough for the 6 wchar_t values.
+
+       o   Solaris xpg4 curses uses a single array of 6 wchar_t values.
+
+       This implementation's cchar_t was defined in 1995 using 5 for the total
+       of  spacing and non-spacing characters (CCHARW_MAX).  That was probably
+       due to a misreading of the  AIX 4  header  files,  because  the  X/Open
+       Curses  document  was  not generally available at that time.  Later (in
+       2002), this detail was overlooked when beginning to implement the func-
+       tions using the structure.
+
+       In  practice, even four non-spacing characters may seem enough.  X/Open
+       Curses documents possible uses for  non-spacing  characters,  including
+       using  them  for ligatures between characters (a feature apparently not
+       supported by any curses implementation).  Unicode does  not  limit  the
+       (analogous) number of combining characters, so some applications may be
+       affected.

 Upon successful completion, \fBsetcchar\fP returns \fBOK\fP.
 Otherwise, it returns \fBERR\fP.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+The \fBCCHARW_MAX\fP symbol is specific to ncurses.
+X/Open Curses does not provide details for the layout of the \fBcchar_t\fP
+structure.
+It tells what data are stored in it:
+.bP
+a spacing character (\fBwchar_t\fP, i.e., 32-bits).
+.bP
+non-spacing characters (again, \fBwchar_t\fP's).
+.bP
+attributes (at least 16 bits, inferred from the various ACS- and WACS-flags).
+.bP
+color pair (at least 16 bits, inferred from the \fBunsigned short\fP type).
+.PP
+The non-spacing characters are optional,
+in the sense that zero or more may be stored in a \fBcchar_t\fP.
+XOpen/Curses specifies a limit:
+.RS 4
+.PP
+Implementations may limit the number of non-spacing characters that can be
+associated with a spacing character, provided any limit is at least 5.
+.RE
+.PP
+The Unix implementations at the time follow that limit:
+.bP
+AIX\ 4 and OSF1\ 4 use the same declaration with an array of 5 non-spacing
+characters \fIz\fP and a single spacing character \fIc\fP.
+.bP
+HP-UX\ 10 uses an opaque structure with 28 bytes,
+which is large enough for the 6 \fBwchar_t\fP values.
+.bP
+Solaris xpg4 curses uses a single array of 6 \fBwchar_t\fP values.
+.PP
+This implementation's \fBcchar_t\fP was defined in 1995
+using \fB5\fP for the total of spacing and non-spacing characters
+(\fBCCHARW_MAX\fP).
+That was probably due to a misreading of the AIX\ 4 header files,
+because the X/Open Curses document was not generally available at that time.
+Later (in 2002), this detail was overlooked when beginning to implement
+the functions using the structure.
+.PP
+In practice, even four non-spacing characters may seem enough.
+X/Open Curses documents possible uses for non-spacing characters,
+including using them for ligatures between characters
+(a feature apparently not supported by any curses implementation).
+Unicode does not limit the (analogous) number of combining characters,
+so some applications may be affected.
