curs_inch(3X) curs_inch(3X)NAMEinch, winch, mvinch, mvwinch - get a character and attributes from a curses windowSYNOPSIS#include <curses.h> chtype inch(void); chtype winch(WINDOW *win); chtype mvinch(int y, int x); chtype mvwinch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);DESCRIPTIONThese 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 informationRETURN VALUEFunctions 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.NOTESNote that all of these routines may be macros.PORTABILITYThese functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.SEE ALSOcurses(3X). Comparable functions in the wide-character (ncursesw) library are described in curs_in_wch(3X). curs_inch(3X)
