-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- These routines return a NULL-terminated array of <STRONG>chtype</STRONG>
- quantities, starting at the current cursor position in the
- named window and ending at the right margin of the window.
- The four functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument, return a
- leading substring at most <EM>n</EM> characters long (exclusive of
- the trailing (chtype)0). Constants defined in <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG>
- can be used with the <STRONG>&</STRONG> (logical AND) operator to extract
- the character or the attribute alone from any position in
- the <EM>chstr</EM> [see <STRONG><A HREF="curs_inch.3x.html">curs_inch(3x)</A></STRONG>].

-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>

- integer value other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon successful completion
- (the number of characters retrieved, exclusive of the
- trailing 0).

+ All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and an integer value
+ other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon successful completion (the number of characters re-
+ trieved, exclusive of the trailing 0).
- No error conditions are defined. If the <EM>chstr</EM> parameter
- is null, no data is returned, and the return value is ze-
- ro.
+ X/Open Curses defines no error conditions. In this implementation:
- Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
- ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is
- outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If the <EM>win</EM> parameter is null, an error is returned,
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If the <EM>chstr</EM> parameter is null, an error is returned,

-<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
- Note that all routines except <STRONG>winchnstr</STRONG> may be macros.
- SVr4 does not document whether the result string is zero-
- terminated; it does not document whether a length limit
- argument includes any trailing 0; and it does not document
- the meaning of the return value.

- These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard,
