NAME

       ins_wch, wins_wch, mvins_wch, mvwins_wch - insert a complex character

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L	/usr/xpg4/lib 
	-R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int ins_wch(const cchar_t *wch);

       int mvins_wch(int y, int x, const cchar_t *wch);

       int mvwins_wch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const cchar_t *wch);

       int wins_wch(WINDOW *win, const cchar_t *wch);

PARAMETERS

       wch    Is the complex character to be inserted.

       y      Is the y (row) coordinate of the position of the character.

       x      Is the x (column) coordinate of the position of the character.

       win    Is a pointer to the window in which the character is to be inserted.

DESCRIPTION

       The  ins_wch()  function  inserts  the complex  character wch at  the current cursor position of the stdscr window. The wins_wch() function
       performs the identical action but in window win.  The mvins_wch() and mvwins_wch() functions insert the character at the position indicated
       by  the	x  (column)  and  y  (row)  parameters	(the former in the stdscr window; the latter in window win).  The cursor position does not
       change.

       All characters to the right of the inserted character are moved right one  character.  The last character on the line is deleted.

       Insertions and deletions occur at the character level. The cursor is adjusted to the first column of the character prior to the operation.

RETURN VALUES

       On success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

ERRORS

       None.
