NAME

curs_addwstr, addwstr, addnwstr, waddwstr, waddnwstr, mvaddwstr, mvaddnwstr, mvwaddwstr, mvwaddnwstr − Add a string of wchar_t characters to a Curses window and advance cursor

LIBRARY

Curses Library (libcurses.a, libcurses.so)

SYNOPSIS

include <curses.h>

int addwstr(const wchar_t ∗wstr);
int addnwstr(const wchar_t ∗wstr, int n);
int waddwstr(WINDOW ∗win, const wchar_t ∗wstr);
int waddnwstr(WINDOW ∗win, const wchar_t ∗wstr,
        int n);
int mvaddwstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t ∗wstr);
int mvaddnwstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t ∗wstr,
        int n);
int mvwaddwstr(WINDOW ∗win, int y, int x,
        const wchar_t ∗wstr);
int mvwaddnwstr(WINDOW ∗win, int y, int x,
        const wchar_t ∗wstr, int n);

STANDARDS

Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

addwstr, addnwstr, waddwstr, waddnwstr, mvaddwstr, mvaddnwstr, mvwaddwstr, mvwaddnwstr:  XPG4−UNIX

Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. 

DESCRIPTION

These routines write all the characters of the wchar_t character string wstr on the given window.  The four routines with n as the last argument write at most n wchar_t characters. For the routines without the n as the last argument, wstr should be null-terminated.  If n is negative, all the routines add the entire string, up to the maximum number of characters that will fit on the line or until a null terminator is reached. 

NOTES

The header file curses.h automatically includes the header file stdio.h. 

Note that all of these routines except waddnwstr may be macros. 

RETURN VALUES

All routines return the integer ERR upon and OK upon successful completion.
