.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBin_wchstr()\fR and \fBwin_wchstr()\fR functions retrieve a complex  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 \fBmvin_wchstr()\fR and \fBmvwin_wchstr()\fR functions retrieve a complex 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 \fBin_wchnstr()\fR, \fBwin_wchnstr()\fR, \fBmvin_wchnstr()\fR, and  \fBmvwin_wchnstr()\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
The retrieved character string (with renditions) is stored in the object pointed to by \fIwcval\fR.
