69 These functions write the characters of the (null-terminated) <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>
70 character string <EM>wstr</EM> on the given window. It is similar to construct-
71 ing a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> for each wchar_t in the string, then calling <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG> for
72 the resulting <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG>.
74 The <EM>mv</EM> functions perform cursor movement once, before writing any char-
75 acters. Thereafter, the cursor is advanced as a side-effect of writing
78 The four functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>
79 characters, or until a terminating null is reached. If <EM>n</EM> is -1, then
80 the entire string will be added.
83 </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
84 All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on success.
86 X/Open does not define any error conditions. This implementation re-
89 <STRONG>o</STRONG> if the window pointer is null or
91 <STRONG>o</STRONG> if the string pointer is null or
93 <STRONG>o</STRONG> if the corresponding calls to <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG> return an error.
95 Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using
96 <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if
97 the window pointer is null.
