66 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
67        These  routines insert a <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string (as many
68        characters as will fit on the line) before  the  character
69        under the cursor.  All characters to the right of the cur-
70        sor are shifted right, with the possibility of the  right-
71        most  characters  on  the line being lost.  No wrapping is
72        performed.  The cursor position  does  not  change  (after
73        moving  to  <EM>y</EM>, <EM>x</EM>, if specified).  The four routines with <EM>n</EM>
74        as the last argument insert a leading substring of at most
75        <EM>n</EM>  <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>  characters.   If  <EM>n</EM> is less than 1, the entire
76        string is inserted.
77
78        If a character in <EM>wstr</EM> is a tab, newline, carriage  return
79        or backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately within the
80        window.  A newline also does  a  <STRONG>clrtoeol</STRONG>  before  moving.
81        Tabs  are  considered  to be at every eighth column.  If a
82        character in <EM>wstr</EM> is  another  control  character,  it  is
83        drawn  in the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation.  Calling <STRONG>win_wch</STRONG> after adding a
84        control character (and moving to it,  if  necessary)  does
85        not  return  the  control character, but instead returns a
86        character in the ^-representation of the  control  charac-
87        ter.

91 <H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
92        Note that all but wins_nwstr may be macros.
93
94        If the first character in the string is a nonspacing char-
95        acter, these functions will fail.   XSI  does  not  define
96        what  will happen if a nonspacing character follows a con-
97        trol character.

100 </PRE>
101 <H2>RETURN VALUES</H2><PRE>
102        Upon successful completion,  these  functions  return  OK.
103        Otherwise, they return ERR.
