curs_inwstr(3) Library Functions Manual curs_inwstr(3) NAME curs_inwstr, inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr - Get a string of wchar_t characters from a Curses window LIBRARY Curses Library (libcurses.a, libcurses.so) SYNOPSIS #include <curses.h> int inwstr(wchar_t *str); int innwstr(wchar_t *str, int n); int winw- str(WINDOW *win, wchar_t *str); int winnwstr(WINDOW *win, wchar_t *str, int n); int mvinwstr(int y, int x, wchar_t *str); int mvinnw- str(int y, int x, wchar_t *str, int n); int mvwinwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, wchar_t *str); int mvwinnwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, wchar_t *str, int n); STANDARDS Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry stan- dards as follows: inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr: XPG4-UNIX Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about in- dustry standards and associated tags. DESCRIPTION These routines return a string of wchar_t characters in str, starting at the current or specified cursor position in the current or specified window and ending at the right margin of the window. The functions strip attributes from the characters. The four functions with n as the last argument return a string that is at most n wchar_t characters long. NOTES The header file curses.h automatically includes the header file stdio.h. Note that all routines except winnwstr may be macros. RETURN VALUES All routines return ERR upon failure. Upon successful completion, the *inwstr routines return OK, and the *innwstr routines return the number of characters read into the string.
