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>
WINDOW *getwin(FILE *filep);
int putwin(WINDOW *win, FILE *filep);
DESCRIPTION
The getwin() function reads window-related data (written earlier by
putwin()) from the stdio stream pointed to by filep. It then creates
and initializes a new window using that data.
The putwin() function writes all the data associated with the window
pointed to by win to the stdio stream pointed to by filep. The
getwin() function can later retrieve this data.
PARAMETERS
filep
Is a pointer to a stdio stream.
win
Is a pointer to a window.
RETURN VALUES
On success, the getwin() function returns a pointer to the new window
created. Otherwise, it returns a null pointer.
On success, the putwin() function returns OK. Otherwise, it returns
ERR.
ERRORS
None.
