.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBinchstr()\fR and \fBwinchstr()\fR functions retrieve the character
string (with rendition) starting at the current cursor position of the
\fBstdscr\fR window and window \fIwin\fR, respectively, and ending at the
right margin. The \fBmvinchstr()\fR and \fBmvwinchstr()\fR functions retrieve
the character string located at the position indicated by the \fIx\fR (column)
and \fIy\fR (row) parameters (the former in the \fBstdscr\fR window; the
latter in window \fIwin\fR).
.sp
.LP
The \fBinchnstr()\fR, \fBwinchnstr()\fR, \fBmvinchnstr()\fR, and
\fBmvwinchnstr()\fR functions retrieve at most \fIn\fR characters from the
window \fBstdscr\fR and \fIwin\fR, respectively. The former two functions
retrieve the string, starting at the current cursor position; the latter two
commands retrieve the string, starting at the position specified by the
\fIx\fR and \fIy\fR parameters.
.sp
.LP
All these functions store the retrieved character string in the object pointed
to by \fIchstr\fR.
.sp
.LP
The complete character/attribute pair is retrieved. The character or
attributes can be extracted by performing a bitwise AND on the retrieved
value, using the constants \fBA_CHARTEXT\fR, \fBA_ATTRIBUTES\fR, and
\fBA_COLOR\fR. The character string can also be retrieved without attributes
by using \fBinstr\fR(3XCURSES) set of functions.
