NAME
curs_in_wch, in_wch, win_wch, mvin_wch, mvwin_wch - Input a complex character and rendition from a Curses window SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h> int in_wch( cchar_t *wcval ); int win_wch( WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wcval ); int mvin_wch( int y, int x, cchar_t *wcval ); int mvwin_wch( WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wcval ); LIBRARY
Curses Library (libcurses) STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows: in_wch, win_wch, mvin_wch, mvwin_wch: XCURSES4.2 Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. DESCRIPTION
These functions extract the complex character and rendition from the current or specified position in the current or specified window into the object pointed to by wcval. NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>. Note that in_wch, mvin_wch and mvwin_wch may be macros. RETURN VALUES

NAME
in_wch, mvin_wch, mvwin_wch, win_wch - extract a complex character and rendition from a window SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h> int in_wch(cchar_t *wcval); int mvin_wch(int y, int x, cchar_t *wcval); int mvwin_wch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wcval); int win_wch(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wcval); DESCRIPTION
These functions extract the complex character and rendition from the current position in the named window into the cchar_t object refer- enced by wcval. RETURN VALUE
No errors are defined in the XSI Curses standard. This implementation checks for null pointers, returns ERR in that case. Also, the mv routines check for error moving the cursor, returning ERR in that case. Otherwise they return OK 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. NOTES
Note that all of these routines may be macros. PORTABILITY
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. SEE ALSO
