These functions print formatted strings on
stdscr or on the specified window.
The
printw() function formats and prints its arguments on
stdscr. The behaviour is the same as that of
printf().
The
wprintw() function is the same as the
printw() function, excepting that the resulting output is printed on the window specified by
win.
The
mvprintw() and
mvwprintw() functions are the same as the
printw() and
wprintw() functions, respectively, excepting that
wmove() is called to move the cursor to the position specified by
y,
x before the output is printed on the window.
The
unctrl() function returns a printable string representation of the character
ch. If
ch is a control character then it will be converted to the form ^Y.
