SYNOPSIS

        #include <curses.h>
 
-       int in_wch(cchar_t *wch);
-       int win_wch(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wch);
-
-       int mvin_wch(int y, int x, cchar_t *wch);
-       int mvwin_wch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wch);
+       int in_wch(cchar_t * wch);
+       int win_wch(WINDOW * win, cchar_t * wch);
+       int mvin_wch(int y, int x, cchar_t * wch);
+       int mvwin_wch(WINDOW * win, int y, int x, cchar_t * wch);
 
 
 

DESCRIPTION

-       These functions extract the complex character and  rendition  from  the
-       current position in the named window into the cchar_t object referenced
-       by wch.
+       win_wch copies the curses complex character at the cursor  position  in
+       win  into  wch.   Use  getcchar(3x)  to  extract  its  character  code,
+       attributes, and  color  pair  identifier.   ncurses(3x)  describes  the
+       variants of this function.
 
 
 

RETURN VALUE

-       No errors are defined in X/Open Curses.  This implementation checks for
-       null  pointers,  returns ERR in that case.  Also, the mv routines check
-       for error moving the cursor, returning ERR  in  that  case.   Otherwise
-       they return OK.
+       These functions return OK on success and ERR on failure.
+
+       In ncurses, win_wch returns ERR if win is NULL.
 
        Functions  prefixed with "mv" first perform cursor movement and fail if
        the position (y, x) is outside the window boundaries.
 
 
 

NOTES

-       Note that all of these routines may be macros.
+       in_wch, mvin_wch, and mvwin_wch may be implemented as macros.
+
+       Unlike winch(3x), win_wch and its  variants  store  the  value  of  the
+       retrieved  character  in  an  additional  wch  parameter instead of the
+       return value.
 
 
 

PORTABILITY

-       These functions are described in X/Open Curses, Issue 4.
+       X/Open Curses, Issue 4 describes  these  functions.   It  specifies  no
+       error conditions for them.
