72        These  functions  write the characters of the (null-termi-
73        nated) <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string <EM>wstr</EM> on the given  window.
74        It  is  similar to constructing a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> for each wchar_t
75        in the string, then calling  <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG>  for  the  resulting
76        <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG>.
77
78        The  <EM>mv</EM>  functions  perform  cursor  movement once, before
79        writing any characters.  Thereafter,  the  cursor  is  ad-
80        vanced as a side-effect of writing to the window.
81
82        The  four  functions  with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at
83        most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> characters, or until a terminating null  is
84        reached.   If  <EM>n</EM>  is  -1,  then  the entire string will be
85        added.
86
87
88 </PRE>
89 <H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
90        All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure  and  <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
91        on success.
92
93        X/Open  does not define any error conditions.  This imple-
94        mentation returns an error
95
96        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the window pointer is null or
97
98        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the string pointer is null or
99
100        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the corresponding calls to <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG> return  an  er-
101            ror.
102
103        Functions  with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
104        ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the  position  is
105        outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
