curs_in_wch(3X)                                                                              curs_in_wch(3X)



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 referenced 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

NOTES
       Note that all of these routines may be macros.

PORTABILITY
       These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
