+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These routines return a NULL-terminated array of \fBchtype\fR quantities,
+starting at the current cursor position in the named window and ending at the
+right margin of the window. The four functions with \fIn\fR as
+the last argument, return a leading substring at most \fIn\fR characters long
+(exclusive of the trailing (chtype)0).
+Constants defined in \fB<curses.h>\fR can be used with the \fB&\fR (logical
+AND) operator to extract the character or the attribute alone from any position
+in the \fIchstr\fR [see \fBinch\fR(3NCURSES)].
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+All routines return the integer \fBERR\fR upon failure and an integer value
+other than \fBERR\fR upon successful completion (the number of characters
+retrieved, exclusive of the trailing 0).
+.PP
+X/Open Curses defines no error conditions.
+In this implementation:
+.bP
+If the \fIwin\fP parameter is null, an error is returned,
+.bP
+If the \fIchstr\fP parameter is null, an error is returned,
+.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
+Note that all routines except \fBwinchnstr\fR may be macros. SVr4 does not
+document whether the result string is zero-terminated; it does not document
+whether a length limit argument includes any trailing 0; and it does not
+document the meaning of the return value.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. It is no
+more specific than the SVr4 documentation on the trailing 0. It does specify
+that the successful return of the functions is \fBOK\fR.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+\fBncurses\fR(3NCURSES), \fBinch\fR(3NCURSES).
+.PP
+Comparable functions in the wide-character (ncursesw) library are
+described in
+\fBin_wchstr\fR(3NCURSES).
