NAME

       in_wchstr, in_wchnstr, win_wchstr, win_wchnstr,
       mvin_wchstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchstr, mvwin_wchnstr -
       get an array of complex characters and renditions from a
       curses window


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int in_wchstr(cchar_t *wchstr);
       int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int win_wchstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int win_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvin_wchstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvin_wchnstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvwin_wchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvwin_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);


DESCRIPTION

       These functions return an array of complex  characters  in
       wchstr,  starting  at  the  current cursor position in the
       named window.  Attributes (rendition) are stored with  the
       characters.

       The  in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr and win_wchn-
       str fill the array with at most n cchar_t elements.


NOTES

       Note that all routines except win_wchnstr may be macros.

       Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by wch-
       str  with in_wchstr, mvin_wchstr, mvwin_wchstr or win_wch-
       str  causes  undefined  results.  Therefore,  the  use  of
       in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr, or win_wchnstr is
       recommended.


RETURN VALUES

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


PORTABILITY

       The  XSI  Curses defines no error conditions.  This imple-
       mentation checks for null pointers, returning ERR in  that
       case.
