NAME
curs_insch, insch, winsch, mvinsch, mvwinsch - Insert a character before the character under the cursor in a Curses window SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h> int insch( chtype ch ); int winsch( WINDOW *win, chtype ch ); int mvinsch( int y, int x, chtype ch ); int mvwinsch( WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch ); LIBRARY
Curses Library (libcurses) STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows: insch, winsch, mvinsch, mvwinsch: XCURSES4.2 Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. DESCRIPTION
These routines insert the character ch before the character under the cursor. All characters to the right of the cursor are moved one space to the right, with the possibility of the rightmost character on the line being lost. The cursor position does not change after moving to y, x, if specified. (This does not imply use of the hardware insert-character feature.) NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>. Note that insch, mvinsch, and mvwinsch may be macros. RETURN VALUES
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK upon successful completion. SEE ALSO
Functions: curses(3) Others: standards(5) curs_insch(3)
