NAME
       in_wchstr,    in_wchnstr,    win_wchstr,	  win_wchnstr,	 mvin_wchstr,
       mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchstr, mvwin_wchnstr - get an  array  of  complex
       characters and renditions from a curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       int in_wchstr(cchar_t *wchstr);
       int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int win_wchstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int win_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvin_wchstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvin_wchnstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvwin_wchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvwin_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
       These  functions	 return	 an  array  of	complex characters in wchstr,
       starting	 at  the  current  cursor  position  in	 the  named   window.
       Attributes (rendition) are stored with the characters.

       The  in_wchnstr,	 mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr and win_wchnstr fill the
       array with at most n cchar_t elements.

NOTES
       Note that all routines except win_wchnstr may be macros.

       Reading a line that overflows the array	pointed	 to  by	 wchstr	 with
       in_wchstr,  mvin_wchstr,	 mvwin_wchstr  or win_wchstr causes undefined
       results. Therefore, the use of in_wchnstr,  mvin_wchnstr,  mvwin_wchn-
       str, or win_wchnstr is recommended.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon  successful	 completion,  these  functions return OK.  Otherwise,
       they return ERR.

PORTABILITY
       The XSI Curses  defines	no  error  conditions.	 This  implementation
       checks for null pointers, returning ERR in that case.
