STANDARDS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Interfaces  documented  on  this reference page conform to
       industry standards as follows:

       inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr,  mvinwstr,  mvinnwstr,

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       These routines return a string of  wchar_t  characters  in
       str,  starting at the current or specified cursor position
       in the current or specified window and ending at the right
       margin  of the window. The functions strip attributes from
       the characters. The four functions  with  n  as  the  last
       argument return a string that is at most n wchar_t characters
 long.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The header  file  <curses.h>  automatically  includes  the
       header file <stdio.h>.

       Note that all routines except winnwstr may be macros.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       All routines return ERR upon failure. Upon successful completion,
 the *inwstr routines return OK, and the  *innwstr
       routines  return  the  number  of characters read into the
       string.
