- Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using

- Each cell in the window holds a complex character (i.e., base- and
- combining-characters) together with attributes and color. These

+ Each cell in the window holds a complex character (a spacing character

Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by <EM>wstr</EM> with <STRONG>inwstr</STRONG>,
<STRONG>mvinwstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinwstr</STRONG> or <STRONG>winwstr</STRONG> causes undefined results. Therefore,
the use of <STRONG>innwstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvinnwstr</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwinnwstr</STRONG>, or <STRONG>winnwstr</STRONG> is recommended.
