  67 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
  68        These functions return an array of complex  characters  in
  69        <EM>wchstr</EM>,  starting  at  the  current cursor position in the
  70        named window.  Attributes (rendition) are stored with  the
  71        characters.
  72
  73        The  <STRONG>in_wchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvin_wchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwin_wchnstr</STRONG> and <STRONG>win_wchn-</STRONG>
  74        <STRONG>str</STRONG> fill the array with at most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> elements.
  75
  76
  77 </PRE>
  78 <H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
  79        Note that all routines except <STRONG>win_wchnstr</STRONG> may be macros.
  80
  81        Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by <EM>wch-</EM>
  82        <EM>str</EM>  with <STRONG>in_wchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvin_wchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwin_wchstr</STRONG> or <STRONG>win_wch-</STRONG>
  83        <STRONG>str</STRONG>  causes  undefined  results.  Therefore,  the  use  of
  84        <STRONG>in_wchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvin_wchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwin_wchnstr</STRONG>, or <STRONG>win_wchnstr</STRONG> is
  85        recommended.
  86
  87
  88 </PRE>
  89 <H2>RETURN VALUES</H2><PRE>
  90        Upon successful completion,  these  functions  return  <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.
  91        Otherwise, they return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>.

  95 <H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
  96        The  XSI  Curses defines no error conditions.  This imple-
  97        mentation checks for null pointers, returning ERR in  that
  98        case.
