NAME curs_inwch: inwch, winwch, mvinwch, mvwinwch - get a wchar_t character and its attributes from a curses window SYNOPSIS #include <curses.h> chtype inwch(void); chtype winwch(WINDOW *win); chtype mvinwch(int y, int x); chtype mvwinwch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x); DESCRIPTION These routines return the wchar_t character, of type chtype, at the current position in the named window. If any attributes are set for that position, 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 winwch. A_CHARTEXT Bit-mask to extract character A_ATTRIBUTESBit-mask to extract attributes A_COLOR Bit-mask to extract color-pair field information NOTES The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>. Note that all of these routines may be macros. SEE ALSO curses(3X).
