NAME

       getattrs - get curses cursor and window coordinates, attributes

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int getattrs(WINDOW *win);
       int getbegx(WINDOW *win);
       int getbegy(WINDOW *win);
       int getcurx(WINDOW *win);
       int getcury(WINDOW *win);
       int getmaxx(WINDOW *win);
       int getmaxy(WINDOW *win);
       int getparx(WINDOW *win);
       int getpary(WINDOW *win);

DESCRIPTION

       The getbegy and getbegx functions return the same data as getbegyx.

       The getcury and getcurx functions return the same data as getyx.

       The getmaxy and getmaxx functions return the same data as getmaxyx.

       The getpary and getparx functions return the same data as getparyx.

RETURN VALUE

       These functions return an integer, or ERR if the window parameter is null.

NOTES

       All  of	these  interfaces  are	provided  as  macros  and  functions.	The  macros  are suppressed (and only the functions provided) when
       NCURSES_OPAQUE is defined.  The standard forms such as getyx must be implemented as macros, and (in this  implementation)  are  defined	in
       terms of the functions described here, to avoid reliance on internal details of the WINDOW structure.

PORTABILITY

       These functions were supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
