NAME

mvprintw, mvwprintw, printw, wprintw — print formatted output in window

SYNOPSIS

#include <curses.h>

int mvprintw(int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);

int mvwprintw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);

DESCRIPTION

The mvprintw(), mvwprintw(), printw() and wprintw()

functions are analogous to printf().

sprintf() were used to format the string, and then

waddstr() were used to add that multi-byte string to the current or speciﬁed window at the current or

speciﬁed cursor position.

RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

ERRORS

No errors are deﬁned.
