NAME

       str, mvwinnstr - Get a string of characters from a Curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #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 );

LIBRARY
       Curses Library (libcurses)

STANDARDS
       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry	 stan‐
       dards as follows:

       instr,	innstr,	  winstr,   winnstr,   mvinstr,	  mvinnstr,  mvwinstr,
       mvwinnstr:  XCURSES4.2

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page	 for  more  information	 about
       industry standards and associated tags.

DESCRIPTION
       These  routines return the 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 a string that	is  at
       most n characters long.

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

       Note that all routines except winnstr may be macros.

RETURN VALUES
       All routines return ERR upon failure. Upon successful  completion,  the
       *instr  routines	 return OK, and the *innstr routines return the number
       of characters read into the string.
