70 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
71        These  routines insert a <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string (as many
72        characters as will fit on the line) before  the  character
73        under the cursor.  All characters to the right of the cur-
74        sor are shifted right, with the possibility of the  right-
75        most  characters  on  the line being lost.  No wrapping is
76        performed.  The cursor position  does  not  change  (after
77        moving  to  <EM>y</EM>, <EM>x</EM>, if specified).  The four routines with <EM>n</EM>
78        as the last argument insert a leading substring of at most
79        <EM>n</EM>  <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>  characters.   If  <EM>n</EM> is less than 1, the entire
80        string is inserted.
81
82        If a character in <EM>wstr</EM> is a tab, newline, carriage  return
83        or backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately within the
84        window.  A newline also does  a  <STRONG>clrtoeol</STRONG>  before  moving.
85        Tabs  are  considered  to be at every eighth column.  If a
86        character in <EM>wstr</EM> is  another  control  character,  it  is
87        drawn  in the <STRONG>^</STRONG><EM>X</EM> notation.  Calling <STRONG>win_wch</STRONG> after adding a
88        control character (and moving to it,  if  necessary)  does
89        not  return  the  control character, but instead returns a
90        character in the ^-representation of the  control  charac-
91        ter.
92

94 </PRE>
95 <H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
96        Note that all but wins_nwstr may be macros.
97
98        If the first character in the string is a nonspacing char-
99        acter, these functions will fail.   XSI  does  not  define
100        what  will happen if a nonspacing character follows a con-
101        trol character.
102
103
104 </PRE>
105 <H2>RETURN VALUES</H2><PRE>
106        Upon successful completion,  these  functions  return  OK.
107        Otherwise, they return ERR.
108
109        Functions  with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
110        ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the  position  is
111        outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
