Description

       These legacy functions are simpler to use than the X/Open curses functions:

       •   The getattrs function returns the same attribute data as wattr_get.

           However, getattrs returns an integer (actually a chtype), while wattr_get returns the  current  color
           pair  in  a separate parameter.  In the wide-character library configuration, color pairs may not fit
           into a chtype, so wattr_get is the only way to obtain the color information.

           Because getattrs returns the attributes in a single parameter,  it  would  not  be  possible  for  an
           application  to  distinguish that from ERR (a -1).  If the window parameter is null, getattrs returns
           A_NORMAL (zero).

       •   The getbegy and getbegx functions return the same data as getbegyx.

       •   The getcury and getcurx functions return the same data as getyx.

       •   The getmaxy and getmaxx functions return the same data as getmaxyx.

       •   The getpary and getparx functions return the same data as getparyx.

Name

getattrs,  getbegx, getbegy, getcurx, getcury, getmaxx, getmaxy, getparx, getpary - get curses cursor and
       window coordinates or attributes (legacy)

Portability

       These functions  were  supported  on  Version  7,  BSD  or  System  V  implementations.   None  of  those
       implementations checked the window parameter.

       The  getattrs  function  and  macro are defined to return a (signed) integer for compatibility with those
       implementations although an unsigned type would have been more appropriate.

Return Value

       Except as noted, these functions return an integer, or ERR if the window parameter is null.
