68        These routines insert a <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string (as many characters as
69        will fit on the line) before the character under the cursor.  All char-
70        acters to the right of the cursor are shifted right, with the possibil-
71        ity of the rightmost characters on the line being lost.  No wrapping is
72        performed.   The cursor position does not change (after moving to <EM>y</EM>, <EM>x</EM>,
73        if specified).  The four routines with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument insert  a
74        leading  substring  of at most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> characters.  If <EM>n</EM> is less than
75        1, the entire string is inserted.
76
77        If a character in <EM>wstr</EM> is a tab, newline, carriage return or backspace,
78        the  cursor  is  moved appropriately within the window.  A newline also
79        does a <STRONG>clrtoeol</STRONG> before moving.  Tabs are  considered  to  be  at  every
80        eighth column.  If a character in <EM>wstr</EM> is another control character, it
81        is drawn in the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation.  Calling <STRONG>win_wch</STRONG> after  adding  a  control
82        character  (and moving to it, if necessary) does not return the control
83        character, but instead returns a character in the  ^-representation  of
84        the control character.

88        Note that all but wins_nwstr may be macros.
89
90        If  the  first character in the string is a nonspacing character, these
91        functions will fail.  XSI does not define what will happen  if  a  non-
92        spacing character follows a control character.
93
94
95 </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
96        Upon successful completion, these functions return <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.  Otherwise, they
97        return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>.
98
99        Functions with a "mv" prefix first  perform  a  cursor  movement  using
100        <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if
101        the window pointer is null.
