-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
-       These routines write the characters of the (null-terminat-
-       ed) <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string <EM>wstr</EM> on the given window.  It
-       is  similar  to constructing a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> for each wchar_t in
-       the  string,  then  calling  <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG>  for  the  resulting
-       <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG>.
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
+       <STRONG>waddwstr</STRONG>  writes  the  characters  of  the (wide-null-terminated) wide-
+       character string <EM>wstr</EM> to the window <EM>win</EM>.  Its  process  is  similar  to
+       constructing   a  <EM>cchar</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>t</EM>  for  each  <EM>wchar</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>t</EM>  in  <EM>wstr</EM>,  then  calling
+       <STRONG><A HREF="curs_add_wch.3x.html">wadd_wch(3x)</A></STRONG> with the resulting <EM>cchar</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>t</EM>.
 
-       The <EM>mv</EM> routines perform cursor movement once, before writ-
-       ing any characters.  Thereafter, the cursor is advanced as
-       a side-effect of writing to the window.
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   Spacing and non-spacing characters in the string are processed  one
+           at a time, and
 
-       The  four  routines  with  <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at
-       most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> characters.  If <EM>n</EM> is -1,  then  the  entire
-       string  will be added, up to the maximum number of charac-
-       ters that will fit on the line,  or  until  a  terminating
-       null is reached.
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   control characters are processed as in <STRONG><A HREF="curs_add_wch.3x.html">wadd_wch(3x)</A></STRONG>.
 
+       <STRONG>waddnwstr</STRONG> writes at most <EM>n</EM> wide characters, or until a terminating wide
+       null character occurs in <EM>wstr</EM>.  If <EM>n</EM> is -1, <STRONG>waddnwstr</STRONG> writes the entire
+       wide string.
 
-</PRE>
-<H2>RETURN VALUES</H2><PRE>
-       All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on
