NAME

       curs_inwch, inwch, winwch, mvinwch, mvwinwch - Get a wchar_t character and its attributes from a Curses window

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       chtype inwch(
	       void ); chtype winwch(
	       WINDOW *win ); chtype mvinwch(
	       int y,
	       int x ); chtype mvwinwch(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       int y,
	       int x );

LIBRARY

       Curses Library (libcurses)

DESCRIPTION

       These  routines	return the wide character, of type chtype, at the current or specified position in the current or specified window. If any
       attributes are set for that position, their values included in the returned value through an inclusive OR operation. Constants  defined	in
       <curses.h> can be used with the & (logical AND) operator to extract the character or attributes alone.

   Attributes
       The  following  bit-masks may be used (logical AND operation) with characters returned by winwch: Bit-mask to extract character Bit-mask to
       extract attributes Bit-mask to extract color-pair field information

NOTES

       The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>.

       Note that all of these routines except winwch may be macros.

       The routines described on this reference page are among the MNLS Curses functions that are not included in the X/Open Curses CAE specifica-
       tion.  MNLS  routines  are  supported  only  for  backward  compatibility  reasons.  Use  the  *in_wch  functions  in new applications (see
       curs_in_wch(3)).

NAME

       curs_inwch, inwch, winwch, mvinwch, mvwinwch - get a wchar_t character and its attributes from a curses window

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library .. ]
       #include <curses.h>

       chtype inwch(void);

       chtype winwch(WINDOW *win);

       chtype mvinwch(int y, int x);

       chtype mvwinwch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION

       These  routines	return the  wchar_t character, of type	chtype, at the current position in the named window. If any attributes are set for
       that position, their values are OR-ed into the value returned. Constants defined in  <curses.h> can be used with the  logical AND (&) oper-
       ator to extract the character or attributes alone.

   Attributes
       The following bit-masks may be AND-ed with characters returned by winwch().

	 A_WCHARTEXT	      Bit-mask to extract character
	 A_WATTRIBUTES	      Bit-mask to extract attributes

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |MT-Level		     |Unsafe			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

SEE ALSO

       curses(3CURSES), attributes(5)

NOTES

       The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files <stdio.h>, <unctrl.h> and <widec.h>.

       Note that all of these routines may be macros.

       None of these routines can use the color attribute in chtype.
