curs_in_wch(3)                  Library calls                 curs_in_wch(3)


NAME

       in_wch, mvin_wch, mvwin_wch, win_wch - get a curses complex character
       from a window


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int in_wch(cchar_t *wch);
       int win_wch(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wch);

       int mvin_wch(int y, int x, cchar_t *wch);
       int mvwin_wch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wch);


DESCRIPTION

       These functions extract the complex character and rendition from the
       current position in the named window into the cchar_t object referenced
       by wch.


RETURN VALUE

       No errors are defined in X/Open Curses.  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 prefixed with "mv" first perform cursor movement and fail if
       the position (y, x) is outside the window boundaries.


NOTES

       Note that all of these routines may be macros.


PORTABILITY

       These functions are described in X/Open Curses, Issue 4.
