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

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 <stdarg.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 win-
     dow.

     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
     <stdarg.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>.

SEE ALSO
     printf(3S), vprintf(3S), printf(3W), curses(3X).
