.SH NAME
\fBgetcchar\fP,
\fBsetcchar\fP \- Get a wide character string and rendition from a \fBcchar_t\fP or set a \fBcchar_t\fP from a wide-character string
and rendition from a \fBcchar_t\fP argument.
When \fIwch\fP is not a null pointer,
the \fBgetcchar\fP function does the following:
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Extracts information from a \fBcchar_t\fP value \fIwcval\fP
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Stores the character attributes in the location pointed to by \fIattrs\fP
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Stores the color-pair in the location pointed to by \fIcolor_pair\fP
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Stores the wide-character string,
characters referenced by \fIwcval\fP, into the array pointed to by \fIwch\fP.
.PP
is a null pointer, the
\fBgetcchar\fP
function does the following:
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Obtains the number of wide characters pointed to by \fIwcval\fP
-.TP 5
--
+.bP
Does not change the data referenced by
\fIattrs\fP
or
.PP
The \fBsetcchar\fP function initializes the location pointed to by \fIwcval\fP
by using:
-.TP 5
--

The string must be L'\\0' terminated,
contain at most one spacing character,
which must be the first.
.IP
-Up to \fBCCHARW_MAX\fP-1 nonspacing characters may follow.
+Up to \fBCCHARW_MAX\fP\-1 nonspacing characters may follow.
Additional nonspacing characters are ignored.
.IP
The string may contain a single control character instead.
