curs_inchstr(3CURSES) Curses Library Functions curs_inchstr(3CURSES) NAME
curs_inchstr, inchstr, inchnstr, winchstr, winchnstr, mvinchstr, mvinchnstr, mvwinchstr, mvwinchnstr - get a string of characters (and attributes) from a curses window SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ] #include <curses.h> int inchstr(chtype *chstr); int inchnstr(chtype *chstr, int n); int winchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *chstr); int winchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *chstr, int n); int mvinchstr(int y, int x, chtype *chstr); int mvinchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *chstr, int n); int mvwinchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *chstr); int mvwinchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *chstr, int n); DESCRIPTION
With these routines, a string of type chtype, starting at the current cursor position in the named window and ending at the right margin of the window, is returned. The four functions with n as the last argument, return the string at most n characters long. Constants defined in <curses.h> can be used with the & (logical AND) operator to extract the character or the attribute alone from any position in the chstr (see curs_inch(3CURSES)). RETURN VALUES
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value other than ERR upon successful completion. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |Unsafe | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
curs_inch(3CURSES), curses(3CURSES), attributes(5) NOTES
The header <curses.h> automatically includes the headers <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>. Note that all routines except winchnstr() may be macros. SunOS 5.11 31 Dec 1996 curs_inchstr(3CURSES)
