NAME
curs_inwstr, inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr - Get a string of wchar_t characters from a
Curses window
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int inwstr(
wchar_t *str ); int innwstr(
wchar_t *str,
int n ); int winwstr(
WINDOW *win,
wchar_t *str ); int winnwstr(
WINDOW *win,
wchar_t *str,
int n ); int mvinwstr(
int y,
int x,
wchar_t *str ); int mvinnwstr(
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,

STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr: XCURSES4.2
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry 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 speci-
fied 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 num-
ber of characters read into the string.
