NAME
getwin, putwin — dump window to, and reload window from, a file
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
WINDOW *getwin(FILE *filep);
int putwin(WINDOW *win, FILE *filep);
DESCRIPTION
The
getwin()
function reads window-related data stored in the file by
putwin().
The function then creates and initialises a new window using that data.
The
putwin()
function writes all data associated with win into the
stdio
stream to which
filep points, using an unspecified format. This information can be
retrieved later using
getwin().
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion,
getwin()
returns a pointer to the window it created. Otherwise, it returns a null
pointer.
Upon successful completion,
putwin()
returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.
