curs_in_wchstr(3X)					    curs_in_wchstr(3X)

NAME
       in_wchstr, in_wchnstr, win_wchstr, win_wchnstr, mvin_wchstr,
       mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchstr, mvwin_wchnstr - get an array	of complex
       characters and renditions from a	curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<curses.h>

       int in_wchstr(cchar_t *wchstr);
       int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int win_wchstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int win_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);

       int mvin_wchstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvin_wchnstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvwin_wchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int	x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvwin_wchnstr(WINDOW	*win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions return an array of complex characters in	wchstr,	start-
       ing  at	the  current  cursor position in the named window.  Attributes
       (rendition) are stored with the characters.

       The in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr and	win_wchnstr  fill  the
       array with at most n cchar_t elements.

NOTES
       Note that all routines except win_wchnstr may be	macros.

       Reading	a  line	 that  overflows  the  array pointed to	by wchstr with
       in_wchstr, mvin_wchstr, mvwin_wchstr or win_wchstr causes undefined re-
       sults.  Therefore, the use of in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr,	mvwin_wchnstr,
       or win_wchnstr is recommended.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.  Otherwise, they
       return ERR.

       Functions  with	a  "mv"	 prefix	 first perform a cursor	movement using
       wmove, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if
       the window pointer is null.

PORTABILITY
       The XSI Curses defines no error conditions.  This implementation	checks
       for null	pointers, returning ERR	in that	case.
