NAME

       ins_wstr, ins_nwstr, wins_wstr, wins_nwstr, mvins_wstr, mvins_nwstr, mvwins_wstr, mvwins_nwstr - insert a
       wide-character string into a curses window

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int ins_wstr(const wchar_t *wstr);
       int ins_nwstr(const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int wins_wstr(WINDOW *win, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int wins_nwstr(WINDOW *win, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int mvins_wstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int mvins_nwstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int mvwins_wstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int mvwins_nwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       These routines insert a wchar_t character string (as many characters as will fit on the line) before  the
       character  under  the  cursor.   All  characters  to  the right of the cursor are shifted right, with the
       possibility of the rightmost characters on the line being lost.  No wrapping is  performed.   The  cursor
       position  does  not  change  (after  moving to y, x, if specified).  The four routines with n as the last
       argument insert a leading substring of at most n wchar_t characters.  If n is less  than  1,  the  entire
       string is inserted.

       If a character in wstr is a tab, newline, carriage return or backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately
       within the window.  A newline also does a clrtoeol before moving.  Tabs are considered  to  be  at  every
       eighth  column.   If  a  character  in wstr is another control character, it is drawn in the ^X notation.
       Calling win_wch after adding a control character (and moving to it, if necessary)  does  not  return  the
       control character, but instead returns a character in the ^-representation of the control character.

NOTES

       Note that all but wins_nwstr may be macros.

       If  the first character in the string is a nonspacing character, these functions will fail.  XSI does not
       define what will happen if a nonspacing character follows a control character.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.  Otherwise, they return ERR.

       Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using wmove, and  return  an  error  if  the
       position is outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
