NAME
     vwscanw - convert formatted input from a window

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L  /usr/xpg4/lib \
      -R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

     c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

     #include 

     int vwscanw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, valist varglist);


PARAMETERS
     fmt         Is a scanf() format string.


     varglist    Is a pointer to a list of parameters.


     win         Is a pointer to the window in which the  charac-
                 ter is to be read.


DESCRIPTION
     The  vwscanw()  function  achieves  the  same   effect   as
     wscanw(3XCURSES)  using  a variable argument list. The third
     argument is a valist, as defined in .

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, vwscanw()  returns  OK.  Other-
     wise, it returns ER.

ERORS
     No errors are defined.

USAGE
     The vwscanw() function is preferred over vwscanw(3XCURSES).
     The  use  of  the  vwscanw() and vwscanw() in the same file
     will  not  work,  due  to  the   requirements   to   include
       and  , which both contain definitions
     of valist.
