curs_printw(3X)                                             curs_printw(3X)


   NAME
         cursprintw:  printw, wprintw, mvprintw, mvwprintw, vwprintw - print
         formatted output in curses windows

   SYNOPSIS
         #include <curses.h>

         int printw(char *fmt [, arg] ...);
         int wprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt [, arg] ...);
         int mvprintw(int y, int x, char *fmt [, arg] ...);
         int mvwprintw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x,
               char *fmt [, arg] ...);

         #include <varargs.h>
         int vwprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, varglist);

   DESCRIPTION
         The printw, wprintw, mvprintw and mvwprintw routines are analogous to
         printf [see printf(3S)].  In effect, the string that would be output
         by printf is output instead as though waddstr were used on the given
         window.

         The vwprintw routine is analogous to vprintf [see vprintf(3S)] and
         performs a wprintw using a variable argument list.  The third
         argument is a valist, a pointer to a list of arguments, as defined
         in <varargs.h>.

   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>.
