+ The complex character type <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> can store more than one wide
+ character (<STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>). The X/Open Curses description does not mention
+ this possibility, describing only the cases where <EM>wch</EM> is a spacing
+ character or a non-spacing character.
+
+ This implementation assumes that <EM>wch</EM> is constructed using <STRONG><A HREF="curs_getcchar.3x.html">setcchar(3x)</A></STRONG>,
+ and in turn that the result
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> contains at most one spacing character in the beginning of its list
+ of wide characters, and zero or more non-spacing characters or
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> may hold one non-spacing character.
+
+ In the latter case, ncurses adds the non-spacing character to the
+ active (base) spacing character.
