Maybe you should raise a bug (bugs.python.org) and flag that this
function is missing.
It could be that it can be introduced by whoever is maintaining the
existing code.

One of the functions discussed that does not appear to have
a Python equivalent is attr_get() which gets the current
attributes.
OK, Using inch() I've written the following function:
def attr_get(win):
""" return current window attributes.
If a character exists at the bottom right position it will be lost!
"""
y,x = win.getmaxyx() # how many lines in the window?
win.insch(y-1,0,' ') # insert a space at bottom left
ch = win.inch(y-1,0) # now read the char (including attributes)
win.delch(y-1,0) # remove the char from window
return ch
And it can be used like:
import curses
scr = curses.initscr()
# uncomment next line to test
# scr.attrset(curses.A_UNDERLINE)
atts = attr_get(scr)
if atts & cur.A_UNDERLINE:
scr.addstr("Underline is on")
else:
scr.addstr("Underline is off")
scr.refresh()
scr.getch()
curses.endwin()
Just in case its useful to anyone else...
