chtype inch(void); chtype winch(WINDOW *win); chtype mvinch(int y, int x); chtype mvwinch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
DESCRIPTION
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
NOTES
Note that all of these routines may be macros.
PORTABILITY
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
