DESCRIPTION

-       These  functions  write  the  (null-terminated)  character
-       string str on the given window.  It is similar to  calling
-       waddch once for each character in the string.

-       The  mv  functions  perform  cursor  movement once, before
-       writing any characters.  Thereafter,  the  cursor  is  ad-
-       vanced as a side-effect of writing to the window.

-       The  four  functions  with n as the last argument write at
-       most n characters, or until a terminating null is reached.
-       If n is -1, then the entire string will be added.
