#include <curses.h>int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
The in_wchstr() and win_wchstr() functions retrieve a complex character string (with rendition) starting at the current cursor position of the stdscr window and window win , respectively, and ending at the right margin. The mvin_wchstr() and mvwin_wchstr() functions retrieve a complex character string located at the position indicated by the x (column) and y (row) parameters (the former in the stdscr window; the latter in window win ).
The in_wchnstr() , win_wchnstr() , mvin_wchnstr() , and mvwin_wchnstr() functions retrieve at most n characters from the window stdscr and win , respectively. The former two functions retrieve the string, starting at the current cursor position; the latter two commands retrieve the string, starting at the position specified by the x and y parameters.
The retrieved character string (with renditions) is stored in the object pointed to by wcval .
Is a pointer to an object where the retrieved complex character string can be stored.
Is the number of characters not to exceed when retrieving wchstr .
Is the y (row) coordinate of the starting position of the string to be retrieved.
Is the x (column) coordinate of the starting position of the string to be retrieved.
Is a pointer to the window in which the string is to be retrieved.
On success, these functions return OK . Otherwise, they return ERR .
None.
