NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ]
       #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

       These  routines	return	a 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 VALUES

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