curs_printw(3curses)                            curs_printw(3curses)


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

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [flag . . .] file -lcurses [library . . .]
             #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, va_list varglist);

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

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

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

       NOTICES
             The header file curses.h automatically includes the header
             files stdio.h and unctrl.h.
