NAME

       chgat, mvchgat, mvwchgat, wchgat - change the rendition of characters in a window

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib 
       -R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int chgat(int n, attr_t attr, short color, const void *opts);

       int mvchgat(int y, int x, int n, attr_t attr, short color, const void *opts);

       int mvwchgat(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, int n, attr_t attr, short color, const void *opts);

       int wchgat(WINDOW *win, int n, attr_t attr, short color, const void *opts);

DESCRIPTION

       These   functions  change the renditions of the next n characters in the current or specified window (or of the remaining characters on the
       current or specified line, if n is -1),	beginning at the current or specified cursor position. The attributes and colors are specified	by
       attr and color as for setcchar(3XCURSES).

       These function neither update the cursor nor perform wrapping.

       A value of n that is greater than the remaining	characters on a line is not an error.

       The opts argument is reserved for definition in a future release. Currently, the application must provide a null pointer for opts.

PARAMETERS

       n	       Is the number of characters whose rendition is to be changed.

       attr	       Is the set of attributes to be assigned to the characters.

       color	       Is the new color pair to be assigned to the characters.

       opts	       Is reserved for future use.   Currently, this must be a null pointer.

       y	       Is the y (row) coordinate of the starting position in the window.

       x	       Is the x (column) coordinate of the starting position in the window. changed in the window.

       win	       Is a pointer to the window in which the rendition of characters is to be  changed.

RETURN VALUES

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

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  change  the renditions of the next n characters in the current or specified window (or of the remaining characters on the
       line if n is -1), starting at the current or specified cursor position. The attributes and colors are specified by attr and  color_pair	as
       in setcchar.

       These functions do not update the cursor and do not perform wrapping.

       A value of n that is greater than the remaining characters on a line is not an error.

       The opts argument is reserved for future use. Currently, the application must provide a null pointer as opts.

NOTES

       The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>.

       Note that chgat, mvchgat, and mvwchgat may be macros.

RETURN VALUES

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