+\fBint wget_wch(WINDOW *\fIwin\fP, wint_t *\fIwch\fP); +\fBint mvget_wch(int \fIy\fP, int \fIx\fP, wint_t *\fIwch\fP); +\fBint mvwget_wch(WINDOW *\fIwin\fP, int \fIy\fP, int \fIx\fP, wint_t *\fIwch\fP); +.PP +\fBint unget_wch(const wchar_t \fIwch\fP); +.fi +.SH DESCRIPTION +.SS wget_wch +The +\fBget_wch\fP, +\fBwget_wch\fP, +\fBmvget_wch\fP, and +\fBmvwget_wch\fP +functions read a character +from the terminal associated with the current or specified window. +In no-delay mode, +if no input is waiting, the value \fBERR\fP is returned. +In delay mode, +the program waits until the system passes text through to the program. +Depending on the setting of \fBcbreak\fP, +this is after one character (cbreak mode), +or after the first newline (nocbreak mode). +In half-delay mode, +the program waits until the user types a character or the specified +timeout interval has elapsed. +.PP +Unless \fBnoecho\fP has been set, +these routines echo the character into the designated window. +.PP +If the window is not a pad and has been moved or modified since the +last call to \fBwrefresh\fP, +\fBwrefresh\fP will be called before another character is read. +.PP +If \fBkeypad\fP is enabled, +these functions respond to +the pressing of a function key by setting the object pointed to by +\fIwch\fP +to the keycode assigned to the function key, +and returning \fBKEY_CODE_YES\fP. +If a character (such as escape) that could be the +beginning of a function key is received, curses sets a timer. +If the remainder +of the sequence does arrive within the designated time, curses passes through +the character; otherwise, curses returns the function key value. +For this +reason, many terminals experience a delay between the time a user presses +the escape key and the time the escape is returned to the program. +.PP +The keycodes returned by these functions are the same as those +returned by \fBwgetch\fP: +.bP +The predefined function +keys are listed in \fB<curses.h>\fP as macros with values outside the range +of 8-bit characters. +Their names begin with \fBKEY_\fP. +.bP +Other (user-defined) function keys +which may be defined using \fB\%define_key\fP(3NCURSES) have no names, +but also are expected to have values outside the range of 8-bit characters. +.SS unget_wch +The +\fBunget_wch\fP +function pushes the wide character +\fIwch\fP +back onto the head of the input queue, so the wide character +is returned by the next call to +\fBget_wch\fP. +The pushback of +one character is guaranteed. +If the program calls +\fBunget_wch\fP +too many times without an intervening call to +\fBget_wch\fP, +the operation may fail. +.PP +Unlike \fBungetch\fP and \fBwgetch\fP, +\fBunget_wch\fP cannot distinguish special characters +returned by \fBwget_wch\fP from ordinary characters. +An application can push special keys +which it may read via \fBwget_wch\fP +by checking for the \fBKEY_CODE_YES\fP result, +and using \fBungetch\fP for those special keys. +.SH RETURN VALUE +When +\fBget_wch\fP, +\fBwget_wch\fP, +\fBmvget_wch\fP, and +\fBmvwget_wch\fP +functions successfully +report the pressing of a function key, they return +\fBKEY_CODE_YES\fP. +When they successfully report a wide character, they return +\fBOK\fP. +Otherwise, they return +\fBERR\fP. +.PP +Upon successful completion, +\fBunget_wch\fP +returns +\fBOK\fP. +Otherwise, the function returns +\fBERR\fP. +.PP +Functions with a \*(``mv\*('' prefix first perform a cursor movement using +\fBwmove\fP, and return an error if the position is outside the window, +or if the window pointer is null. +.SH NOTES +Applications should not define the escape key by itself as a single-character +function. +.PP +When using +\fBget_wch\fP, +\fBwget_wch\fP, +\fBmvget_wch\fP, or +\fBmvwget_wch\fP, applications should +not use +\fBnocbreak\fP +mode and +\fBecho\fP +mode +at the same time. +Depending on the state of the tty driver when each character +is typed, the program may produce undesirable results. +.PP +All of these functions except +\fB\%wget_wch\fP and +\fB\%unget_wch\fP +may be implemented as macros. +.SH PORTABILITY +These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fB\%ncurses\fP(3NCURSES), +\fB\%getch\fP(3NCURSES), +\fB\%inopts\fP(3NCURSES), +\fB\%ins_wch\fP(3NCURSES), +\fB\%move\fP(3NCURSES), +\fB\%refresh\fP(3NCURSES) |
