</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
       These  functions copy the (null-terminated) array of complex characters
       <EM>wchstr</EM> into the window image structure starting at the  current  cursor
       position.   The four functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument copy at most
       <EM>n</EM> elements, but no more than will fit on the line.  If  <STRONG>n</STRONG>=<STRONG>-1</STRONG>  then  the
       whole  array  is  copied, to the maximum number of characters that will
       fit on the line.

       The window cursor is <EM>not</EM> advanced.  These functions  work  faster  than
       <STRONG>waddnstr</STRONG>.  On the other hand:

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they  do  not perform checking (such as for the newline, backspace,
           or carriage return characters),

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they do not advance the current cursor position,

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they do not expand other control characters to ^-escapes, and

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they truncate the string if it crosses  the  right  margin,  rather
           than wrapping it around to the new line.

       These  functions  end  successfully  on encountering a null <EM>cchar</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>t</EM>, or
       when they have filled the current line.  If a complex character  cannot
       completely  fit  at  the end of the current line, the remaining columns
       are filled with the background character and rendition.


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
       All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on success.

       X/Open does not define any error conditions.  This  implementation  re-
       turns an error if the window pointer is null.

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


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE>
       All functions except <STRONG>wadd_wchnstr</STRONG> may be macros.


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
       These entry points are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
