Hello;
I am trying to determine all of the cell attributes active on a given
cell of a curses window. I start by getting a value that contains the
attribute and character at the specified location ...
cellValue = windowHandle.in ch(y, x)
Now, I have to pull out the attributes (MSB) ...
cellAttr = cellValue & 0x0000FF00
I should be able to test cellAttr for various attributes with bitwise
AND ...
if (cellAttr & curses.A_BOLD) == curses.A_BOLD: doSomething()
Doing this doesn't seem to work. All my cells come out as having the
same selection of attributes, curses.A_NORMAL , even though some are bold.
How do people test for active attributes in curses windows?
Many thanks,
Brian.
