       NAME
             curs_inswstr: inswstr, insnwstr, winswstr, winsnwstr,
             mvinswstr, mvinsnwstr, mvwinswstr, mvwinsnwstr - insert
             wchar_t string before character under the cursor in a curses
             window

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [flag . . .] file -lcurses [library . . .]
             #include <curses.h>
             int inswstr(char *wstr);
             int insnwstr(char *wstr, int n);
             int winswstr(WINDOW *win, char *wstr);
             int winsnwstr(WINDOW *win, char *wstr, int n);
             int mvinswstr(int y, int x, char *wstr);
             int mvinsnwstr(int y, int x, char *wstr, int n);
             int mvwinswstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *wstr);
             int mvwinsnwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *wstr, int n);

       DESCRIPTION
             These routines insert a wchar_t character string (as many
             wchar_t characters as will fit on the line) before the
             character under the cursor.  All characters to the right of
             the cursor are moved to the right, with the possibility of the
             rightmost characters on the line being lost.  The cursor
             position does not change (after moving to y, x, if specified).
             (This does not imply use of the hardware insert character
             feature.)  The four routines with n as the last argument
             insert at most n wchar_t characters.  If n<=0, then 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 winch after adding a control character (and
             moving to it, if necessary) does not return the control
             character, but instead returns the representation of the
             control character.

          Return Values
             All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an
             integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.
