<STRONG>o</STRONG> Tabs are considered to be at every eighth column. The tab interval
may be altered by setting the <STRONG>TABSIZE</STRONG> variable.
- If <EM>ch</EM> is any other control character, it is drawn in <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation.
- Calling <STRONG>winch</STRONG> after adding a control character does not return the
- character itself, but instead returns the ^-representation of the con-
- trol character.
+ If <EM>ch</EM> is any other nonprintable character, it is drawn in printable
+ form, i.e., the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation used by <STRONG><A HREF="unctrl.3x.html">unctrl(3x)</A></STRONG>. Calling <STRONG>winch</STRONG> after
+ adding a nonprintable character does not return the character itself,
+ but instead returns the printable representation of the character.
Video attributes can be combined with a character argument passed to
<STRONG>addch</STRONG> or related functions by logical-ORing them into the character.
