curs_inch(3) UNIX Programmer's Manual curs_inch(3)
inch, winch, mvinch, mvwinch - get a character and attri-
butes from a curses window
#include <curses.h>
chtype inch(void);
chtype winch(WINDOW *win);
chtype mvinch(int y, int x);
chtype mvwinch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
These routines return the character, of type chtype, at the
current position in the named window. If any attributes are
set for that position, their values are OR'ed into the value
returned. Constants defined in <curses.h> can be used with
the & (logical AND) operator to extract the character or
attributes alone.
Attributes
The following bit-masks may be AND-ed with characters
returned by winch.
A_CHARTEXT Bit-mask to extract character
A_ATTRIBUTES Bit-mask to extract attributes
A_COLOR Bit-mask to extract color-pair field information
Note that all of these routines may be macros.
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard,
Issue 4.
