curs_inch(3X)curs_inch(3X)NAME
inch, winch, mvinch, mvwinch - get a character and attributes from a curses window
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
chtype inch(void);
chtype winch(WINDOW *win);
chtype mvinch(int y, int x);
chtype mvwinch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
DESCRIPTION
These routines return the character, of type chtype, at the current position in the named window. If any attributes are set for that posi-
tion, their values are OR'ed into the value returned. 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 AND-ed with characters returned by winch.
A_CHARTEXT Bit-mask to extract character
A_ATTRIBUTES Bit-mask to extract attributes
A_COLOR Bit-mask to extract color-pair field information
NOTES
Note that all of these routines may be macros.
PORTABILITY
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
SEE ALSO curses(3X).

RETURN VALUE
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.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:
