curs_printw(3X)  MISCELLANEOUS LIBRARY FUNCTIONS  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>.
