mvprintw(3XCURSES) X/Open Curses Library Functions mvprintw(3XCURSES)NAME
mvprintw, mvwprintw, printw, wprintw - print formatted output window
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib \
-R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]
c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]
#include <curses.h>
int mvprintw(int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);
int mvwprintw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);
int printw(char *fmt, ...);
int wprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, ...);
PARAMETERS
y Is the y (row) coordinate position of the
string's placement in the window.
x Is the x (column) coordinate position of the
string's placement in the window.
fmt Is a printf() format string.
win Is a pointer to the window in which the string
is to be written.
DESCRIPTION
The mvprintw(), mvwprintw(), printw(), and wprintw() functions are
analogous to printf(3C). The effect of these functions is as though
sprintf() were used to format the string, and then waddstr(3XCURSES)
were used to add that multi-byte string to the current or specified
window at the current or specified cursor position.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they
return ERR.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
