NAME
       keybound - return definition of keycode

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       char * keybound(int keycode, int count);

DESCRIPTION
       This  is an extension to the curses library.  It permits an application to determine the string which
       is defined in the terminfo for specific keycodes.

RETURN VALUE

       a  defined key, then NULL is returned.  The count parameter is used to allow the application to iter-ate iterate
       ate through multiple definitions, counting from zero.  When successful, the function returns a string
