inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr - get a string of wchar_t characters from a curses windowSYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int inwstr( wchar_t * str );
int innwstr( wchar_t * str , int n );
int winwstr( WINDOW * win , wchar_t * str );
int winnwstr( WINDOW * win , wchar_t * str , int n );

int mvinnwstr( int y , int x , wchar_t * str , int n );
int mvwinwstr( WINDOW * win , int y , int x , wchar_t * str );
int mvwinnwstr( WINDOW * win , int y , int x , wchar_t * str , int n );
DESCRIPTION
These routines return a string of wchar_t characters in wstr, extracted starting at the current cursor position in the named window. Attributes are stripped from the characters. The four functions with n as the last argument return a leading substring at most n bytes long (exclusive of the trailing NUL). Transfer stops at the end of the current line, or when n bytes have been stored at the location referenced by wstr.If the size n is not large enough to store a complete character, an error is generated.
