CURS_INWCH(3CURSES)					   CURS_INWCH(3CURSES)

NAME
       curs_inwch,  inwch, winwch, mvinwch, mvwinwch - get a wchar_t character
       and its attributes from a curses window

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library .. ]
       #include <curses.h>

       chtype inwch(void);

       chtype winwch(WINDOW *win);

       chtype mvinwch(int y, int x);

       chtype mvwinwch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION
       These routines return the  wchar_t character, of type  chtype,  at  the
       current	position  in  the  named window. If any attributes are set for
       that position, their values are OR-ed into  the	value  returned.  Con‐
       stants  defined	in  <curses.h>	can  be used with the  logical AND (&)
       operator to extract the character or attributes alone.

   Attributes
       The following bit-masks may be AND-ed with characters returned by  win‐
       wch().

	 A_WCHARTEXT	      Bit-mask to extract character
	 A_WATTRIBUTES	      Bit-mask to extract attributes

ATTRIBUTES
       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       ┌───────────────┬─────────────────┐
       │ATTRIBUTE TYPE │ ATTRIBUTE VALUE │
       ├───────────────┼─────────────────┤
       │MT-Level       │ Unsafe		 │
       └───────────────┴─────────────────┘

SEE ALSO
       curses(3CURSES), attributes(5)

NOTES
       The  header  file  <curses.h>  automatically  includes the header files
       <stdio.h>, <unctrl.h> and <widec.h>.

       Note that all of these routines may be macros.

       None of these routines can use the color attribute in chtype.
