mvwprintw(3)

NAME

       printw,	wprintw, mvprintw, mvwprintw, vwprintw, vw_printw - print for-
       matted output in curses windows


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int printw(char *fmt [, arg] ...);
       int wprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt [, arg] ...);
       int mvprintw(int y, int x, char *fmt [, arg] ...);
       int mvwprintw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x,
	     char *fmt [, arg] ...);

       #include <varargs.h>
       int vwprintw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, varglist);
       int vw_printw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, varglist);


DESCRIPTION

       The printw, wprintw, mvprintw and mvwprintw routines are  analogous  to
       printf [see printf(3S)].  In effect, the string that would be output by
       printf is output instead as though waddstr were used on the given  win-
       dow.

       The  vwprintw routine is analogous to vprintf [see printf(3S)] and per-
       forms a wprintw using a variable argument list.	The third argument  is
       a va_list, a pointer to a list of arguments, as defined in <varargs.h>.


RETURN VALUE

       Routines that return an integer return ERR upon failure	and  OK  (SVr4
       only  specifies "an integer value other than ERR") upon successful com-
       pletion.


PORTABILITY

       The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions.  The  func-
       tion  vwprintw  is  marked  TO BE WITHDRAWN, and is to be replaced by a
       function vw_printw using the <stdarg.h> interface.
