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



NAME
     curs_inwch:  inwch, winwch, mvinwch, mvwinwch - get a
          wchar_t character and its attributes from a curses win-
          dow

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     chtype inwch(void);

     chtype winwch(WINDOW *win);
     chtype mvinwch(int y, int x);

     chtype mvwinwch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION
     With these routines, the wchar_t character, of type chtype,
     at the current position in the named window is returned.  If
     any attributes are set for that position, their values are
     OR-ed into the value returned.  Constants defined in
     <curses.h> can be used with the & (logical AND) operator to
     extract the character or attributes alone.

   Attributes
     The following bit-masks may be AND-ed with characters
     returned by winwch.

          A_CHARTEXT  Bit-mask to extract character
          A_ATTRIBUTESBit-mask to extract attributes
          A_COLOR     Bit-mask to extract color-pair field information

NOTES
     The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header
     files <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

     Note that all of these routines may be macros.
