-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- The <STRONG>getbegy</STRONG> and <STRONG>getbegx</STRONG> functions return the same data as
- <STRONG>getbegyx</STRONG>.
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
+ These legacy functions are simpler to use than the X/Open Curses func-
+ tions:
- The <STRONG>getcury</STRONG> and <STRONG>getcurx</STRONG> functions return the same data as
- <STRONG>getyx</STRONG>.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The <STRONG>getattrs</STRONG> function returns the same attribute data as <STRONG>wattr_get</STRONG>.
- The <STRONG>getmaxy</STRONG> and <STRONG>getmaxx</STRONG> functions return the same data as
- <STRONG>getmaxyx</STRONG>.
+ However, <STRONG>getattrs</STRONG> returns an integer (actually a <STRONG>chtype</STRONG>), while
+ <STRONG>wattr_get</STRONG> returns the current color pair in a separate parameter.
+ In the wide-character library configuration, color pairs may not
+ fit into a <STRONG>chtype</STRONG>, so <STRONG>wattr_get</STRONG> is the only way to obtain the color
+ information.
- The <STRONG>getpary</STRONG> and <STRONG>getparx</STRONG> functions return the same data as
- <STRONG>getparyx</STRONG>.
+ Because <STRONG>getattrs</STRONG> returns the attributes in a single parameter, it
+ would not be possible for an application to distinguish that from
+ <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> (a <EM>-1</EM>). If the window parameter is null, <STRONG>getattrs</STRONG> returns
+ <STRONG>A_NORMAL</STRONG> (zero).
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The <STRONG>getbegy</STRONG> and <STRONG>getbegx</STRONG> functions return the same data as <STRONG>getbegyx</STRONG>.
-</PRE>
-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- These functions return an integer, or ERR if the window
- parameter is null.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The <STRONG>getcury</STRONG> and <STRONG>getcurx</STRONG> functions return the same data as <STRONG>getyx</STRONG>.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The <STRONG>getmaxy</STRONG> and <STRONG>getmaxx</STRONG> functions return the same data as <STRONG>getmaxyx</STRONG>.

-<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
- All of these interfaces are provided as macros and func-
- tions. The macros are suppressed (and only the functions
- provided) when <STRONG>NCURSES_OPAQUE</STRONG> is defined. The standard
- forms such as <STRONG>getyx</STRONG> 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.
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> The <STRONG>getpary</STRONG> and <STRONG>getparx</STRONG> functions return the same data as <STRONG>getparyx</STRONG>.

- These functions were supported on Version 7, BSD or System
- V implementations.

+ ger for compatibility with those implementations although an unsigned
+ type would have been more appropriate.
