curs_instr, instr, innstr, winstr, winnstr, mvinstr, mvinnstr, mvwinstr, mvwinnstr - get a string of characters from a curses window
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ]
#include <curses.h>
int instr(char *str);
int innstr(char *str, int n);
int winstr(WINDOW *win, char *str);
int winnstr(WINDOW *win, char *str, int n);
int mvinstr(int y, int x, char *str);
int mvinnstr(int y, int x, char *str, int n);
int mvwinstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str);
int mvwinnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str, int n);
DESCRIPTION
These routines return a string of characters in str, starting at the current cursor position in the named window and ending at the right
margin of the window. Attributes are stripped from the characters. The four functions with n as the last argument return the string at most
n characters long.
RETURN VALUES
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.

Platform is Cygwin 64 running over Win 7 Pro.
