vwprintw(3X)                                                   vwprintw(3X)

NAME
     vwprintw - print formatted output in window

SYNOPSIS
     cc [flag ...] file ... -lcurses [library ...]

     #include <varargs.h>
     #include <curses.h>

     int vwprintw(WINDOW *, char *, valist varglist);

DESCRIPTION
     The vwprintw() function achieves the same effect as wprintw() using a
     variable argument list. The third argument is a valist, as defined in
     <varargs.h> [see varargs(5)].

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, vwprintw() returns OK. Otherwise, it
     returns ERR.

ERRORS
     No errors are defined.

NOTES
     The vwprintw() function is deprecated because it relies on deprecated
     functions in the XSH specification. The vwprintw() function is pre-
     ferred. The use of the vwprintw() and the vwprintw() functions in the
     same file will not work, due to the requirement to include varargs.h
     and stdarg.h which both contain definitions of valist.
