CURSPRINTW(3X-SVR4)RISC/os Reference Manual CURSPRINTW(3X-SVR4)



NAME
     curs_printw:  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 argu-
     ment list.  The third argument is a va_list, 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>.
