NAME
curs_addwchstr: addwchstr, addwchnstr, waddwchstr, waddwchnstr,
mvaddwchstr, mvaddwchnstr, mvwaddwchstr, mvwaddwchnstr - add string
of wchar_t characters to a curses window
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int addwchstr(chtype *wchstr);
int addwchnstr(chtype *wchstr, int n);
int waddwchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr);
int waddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr, int n);
int mvaddwchstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
int mvaddwchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr, int n);
int mvwaddwchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
int mvwaddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x,
chtype *wchstr, int n);
DESCRIPTION
All of these routines copy wchstr which points to the string of
wchar_t characters directly into the window image structure starting
at the current cursor position. The four routines with n as the
last argument copy at most n elements, but no more than will fit on
the line. If n=-1 then the whole string is copied, to the maximum
number that fit on the line.
The position of the window cursor is NOT advanced. These routines
works faster than waddnwstr because they merely copy wchstr into the
window image structure. On the other hand, care must be taken when
using these functions because they don't perform any kind of checking
(such as for the newline character), they don't advance the current
cursor position, and they truncate the string, rather then wrapping
it around to the new line.
RETURN VALUE
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value
other than ERR upon successful completion, unless otherwise noted in
the preceding routine descriptions.
NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files
<stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.
Note that all routines except waddwchnstr may be macros.
