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