+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The \fBgetcchar\fP function gets a wide-character string
+and rendition from a \fBcchar_t\fP argument.
+When \fIwch\fP is not a null pointer,
+the \fBgetcchar\fP function does the following:
+.TP 5
+-
+Extracts information from a \fBcchar_t\fP value \fIwcval\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+Stores the character attributes in the location pointed to by \fIattrs\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+Stores the color-pair in the location pointed to by \fIcolor_pair\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+Stores the wide-character string,
+characters referenced by \fIwcval\fP, into the array pointed to by \fIwch\fP.
+.PP
+When
+\fIwch\fP
+is a null pointer, the
+\fBgetcchar\fP
+function does the following:
+.TP 5
+-
+Obtains the number of wide characters pointed to by \fIwcval\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+Does not change the data referenced by
+\fIattrs\fP
+or
+\fIcolor_pair\fP
+.PP
+The \fBsetcchar\fP function initializes the location pointed to by \fIwcval\fP
+by using:
+.TP 5
+-
+The character attributes in
+\fIattrs\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+The color pair in
+\fIcolor_pair\fP
+.TP 5
+-
+The wide-character string pointed to by \fIwch\fP.
+The string must be L'\\0' terminated,
+contain at most one spacing character,
+which must be the first.
+.IP
+Up to \fBCCHARW_MAX\fP-1 nonspacing characters may follow.
+Additional nonspacing characters are ignored.
+.IP
+The string may contain a single control character instead.
+In that case, no nonspacing characters are allowed.
+.SH NOTES
+.PP
+The \fIopts\fP argument is reserved for future use.
+Currently, an application must provide a null pointer as \fIopts\fP.
+.PP
+The \fIwcval\fP argument may be a value generated by a call to
+\fBsetcchar\fP or by a function that has a \fBcchar_t\fP output argument.
+If \fIwcval\fP is constructed by any other means, the effect is unspecified.
+.SH RETURN VALUES
+.PP
+When \fIwch\fP is a null pointer,
+\fBgetcchar\fP returns the number of wide characters referenced by
+\fIwcval\fP.
+.PP
+When \fIwch\fP is not a null pointer,
+\fBgetcchar\fP returns \fBOK\fP upon successful completion,
+and \fBERR\fP otherwise.
+.PP
+Upon successful completion, \fBsetcchar\fP returns \fBOK\fP.
+Otherwise, it returns \fBERR\fP.
