As shipped in IRIX 6.5.7. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     curs_inwchstr: inwchstr, inwchnstr, winwchstr, winwchnstr, mvinwchstr,
     mvinwchnstr, mvwinwchstr, mvwinwchnstr - get a string of wchar_t
     characters (and attributes) from a curses window

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int inwchstr(chtype *wchstr);
     int inwchnstr(chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int winwchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr);
     int winwchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int mvinwchstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
     int mvinwchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int mvwinwchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
     int mvwinwchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *wchstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
     These routines return a string of type chtype, holding wchar_t
     characters, starting at the current cursor position in the named window
     and ending at the right margin of the window.  The four functions with n
     as the last argument, return the string at most n wchar_t characters
     long.  Constants defined in <curses.h> can be used with the & (logical
     AND) operator to extract the wchar_t character or the attribute alone
     from any position in the chstr [see curs_inwch(3X)].

RETURN VALUE
     All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value
     other than ERR upon successful completion.

NOTES
     The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files
     <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

     Note that all routines except winwchnstr may be macros.
