\fBmvaddnstr\fR,

+.ad

.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
\fB#include <curses.h>\fR
All routines return the integer \fBERR\fR upon failure and \fBOK\fR on success
(the SVr4 manuals specify only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fR") upon
successful completion.
+.PP
+X/Open does not define any error conditions.
+This implementation returns an error
+if the window pointer is null or
+if the string pointer is null or
+if the corresponding calls to \fBwaddch\fP return an error.
.SH NOTES
Note that all of these routines except \fBwaddstr\fR and \fBwaddnstr\fR may be
macros.
