+.SH NAME
+curs_legacy \- get \fBcurses\fP cursor and window coordinates, attributes
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fB#include <ncursesw/curses.h>\fP
+.sp
+\fBint getattrs(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getbegx(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getbegy(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getcurx(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getcury(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getmaxx(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getmaxy(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getparx(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+\fBint getpary(WINDOW *win);\fP
+.br
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These legacy functions are simpler to use than the X/Open Curses functions:
+.bP
+The \fBgetattrs\fP function returns the same attribute data as \fBwattr_get\fP.
+.IP
+However, \fBgetattrs\fP returns an integer (actually a \fBchtype\fP),
+while \fBwattr_get\fP returns the current color pair in a separate parameter.
+In the wide-character library configuration,
+color pairs may not fit into a \fBchtype\fP,
+so \fBwattr_get\fP is the only way to obtain the color information.
+.IP
+Because \fBgetattrs\fP returns the attributes in a single parameter,
+it would not be possible for an application to distinguish that from
+\fBERR\fP (a \fI-1\fP).
+If the window parameter is null, \fBgetattrs\fP returns \fBA_NORMAL\fP (zero).
+.bP
+The \fBgetbegy\fP and \fBgetbegx\fP functions return the same
+data as \fBgetbegyx\fP.
+.bP
+The \fBgetcury\fP and \fBgetcurx\fP functions return the same
+data as \fBgetyx\fP.
+.bP
+The \fBgetmaxy\fP and \fBgetmaxx\fP functions return the same
+data as \fBgetmaxyx\fP.
+.bP
+The \fBgetpary\fP and \fBgetparx\fP functions return the same
+data as \fBgetparyx\fP.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Except as noted,
+these functions return an integer,
+or \fBERR\fP if the window parameter is null.
+.SH NOTES
+All of these interfaces are provided as macros and functions.
+The macros are suppressed (and only the functions provided)
+when \fBNCURSES_OPAQUE\fP is defined.
+The standard forms such as \fBgetyx\fP must be implemented as macros,
+and (in this implementation) are defined in terms of the functions
+described here,
+to avoid reliance on internal details of the WINDOW structure.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These functions were supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
+None of those implementations checked the window parameter.
+.PP
+The \fBgetattrs\fP function and macro are defined to return a (signed) integer
+for compatibility with those implementations
+although an unsigned type would have been more appropriate.
