+ These legacy functions are simpler to use than the X/Open Curses
+ functions:
-</PRE>
-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- These functions return an integer, or ERR if the window
- parameter is null.
+ <B>o</B> The <B>getattrs</B> function returns the same attribute data as <B>wattr_get</B>.
+ However, <B>getattrs</B> returns an integer (actually a <B>chtype</B>), while
+ <B>wattr_get</B> returns the current color pair in a separate parameter.
+ In the wide-character library configuration, color pairs may not
+ fit into a <B>chtype</B>, so <B>wattr_get</B> is the only way to obtain the color
+ information.
-</PRE>
-<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
- All of these interfaces are provided as macros and func-
- tions. The macros are suppressed (and only the functions
- provided) when <STRONG>NCURSES_OPAQUE</STRONG> is defined. The standard
- forms such as <STRONG>getyx</STRONG> must be implemented as macros, and (in
- this implementation) are defined in terms of the functions
- described here, to avoid reliance on internal details of
- the WINDOW structure.
+ Because <B>getattrs</B> returns the attributes in a single parameter, it
+ would not be possible for an application to distinguish that from
+ <B>ERR</B> (a <I>-1</I>). If the window parameter is null, <B>getattrs</B> returns
+ <B>A_NORMAL</B> (zero).
+ <B>o</B> The <B>getbegy</B> and <B>getbegx</B> functions return the same data as <B>getbegyx</B>.
-</PRE>
-<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
- These functions were supported on Version 7, BSD or System
- V implementations.
+ <B>o</B> The <B>getcury</B> and <B>getcurx</B> functions return the same data as <B>getyx</B>.
+ <B>o</B> The <B>getmaxy</B> and <B>getmaxx</B> functions return the same data as <B>getmaxyx</B>.
