- <STRONG>mvinchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinchnstr</STRONG> - get a string of
+ <STRONG>inchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>inchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>winchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>winchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvinchstr</STRONG>,
+ <STRONG>mvinchnstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinchstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinchnstr</STRONG> - get a string of
characters (and attributes) from a <STRONG>curses</STRONG> window
(the number of characters retrieved, 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.
+
+ 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.

- minated; it does not document whether a length limit argu-
- ment includes any trailing 0; and it does not document the
- meaning of the return value.

+ 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.
