DESCRIPTION
These functions extract characters from the current or specified window,
starting at the current or specified position and ending at the end of the
line, and place them in the array pointed to by
wchstr .
The
in_wchnstr(),
mvin_wchnstr(),
mvwin_wchnstr()
and
win_wchnstr()
fill the array with at most n cchar_t elements.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.
Otherwise, they return ERR.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
APPLICATION USAGE
Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by wchstr with
in_wchstr(),
mvin_wchstr(),
mvwin_wchstr()
or
win_wchstr()
causes undefined results. The use of
in_wchnstr(),
mvin_wchnstr(),
mvwin_wchnstr()
or
win_wchnstr(),
respectively, is recommended.
