mvprintw(3XCURSES)					  X/Open Curses Library Functions					mvprintw(3XCURSES)

NAME
       mvprintw, mvwprintw, printw, wprintw - print formatted output window

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L	/usr/xpg4/lib 
	-R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int mvprintw(int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);

       int mvwprintw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);

       int printw(char *fmt, ...);

       int wprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, ...);

PARAMETERS
       y      Is the y (row) coordinate position of the string's placement in the window.

       x      Is the x (column) coordinate position of the string's placement in the window.

       fmt    Is a printf() format string.

       win    Is a pointer to the window in which the string is to be written.

DESCRIPTION
       The  mvprintw(),  mvwprintw(),  printw(),  and  wprintw() functions are analogous to printf(3C). The effect of these functions is as though
       sprintf() were used to format the string, and then waddstr(3XCURSES) were used to add that multi-byte string to the  current  or  specified
       window at the current or specified cursor position.

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

ERRORS
	No errors are defined.
