NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     curs_instr: instr,	innstr,	winstr,	winnstr, mvinstr, mvinnstr, mvwinstr,
     mvwinnstr - get a string of characters from a curses window

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <curses.h>

     int instr(char *str);

     int innstr(char *str, int n);
     int winstr(WINDOW *win, char *str);

     int winnstr(WINDOW	*win, char *str, int n);
     int mvinstr(int y,	int x, char *str);

     int mvinnstr(int y, int x,	char *str, int n);
     int mvwinstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str);

     int mvwinnstr(WINDOW *win,	int y, int x, char *str, int n);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     These routines return the string of characters in str starting at the
     current cursor position in	the named window and ending at the right
     margin of the window.  Attributes are stripped from the characters.  The
     four functions with n as the last argument	return the string at most n
     characters	long.

RETURN VALUE    [Toc]    [Back]

     All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value
     other than	ERR upon successful completion.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The header	file curses.h automatically includes the header	files stdio.h
     and unctrl.h.

     Note that all routines except winnstr may be macros.
