.SH DESCRIPTION
These functions extract the complex character and rendition from
-the current position in the named window into the \fBcchar_t\fR object
+the current position in the named window into the \fBcchar_t\fP object
referenced by wcval.
.SH RETURN VALUE
No errors are defined in the XSI Curses standard.
-This implementation checks for null pointers, returns ERR in that case.
-Also, the \fImv\fR routines check for error moving the cursor, returning ERR
-in that case.
-Otherwise they return OK
+This implementation checks for null pointers, returns \fBERR\fP in that case.
+Also, the \fImv\fP routines check for error moving the cursor,
+returning \fBERR\fP in that case.
+Otherwise they return \fBOK\fP.
.PP
-Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using
+Functions with a \*(``mv\*('' prefix first perform a cursor movement using
\fBwmove\fP, and return an error if the position is outside the window,
or if the window pointer is null.
