NAME

       addstr,	addnstr, waddstr, waddnstr, mvaddstr, mvaddnstr, mvwaddstr, mvwaddnstr - add a string of characters to a curses window and advance
       cursor

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int addstr(const char *str);
       int addnstr(const char *str, int n);
       int waddstr(WINDOW *win, const char *str);
       int waddnstr(WINDOW *win, const char *str, int n);
       int mvaddstr(int y, int x, const char *str);
       int mvaddnstr(int y, int x, const char *str, int n);
       int mvwaddstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const char *str);
       int mvwaddnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const char *str, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       These routines write the characters of the (null-terminated) character string str on the given window.  It is  similar  to  calling  waddch
       once  for  each	character  in the string.  The four routines with n as the last argument write at most n characters.  If n is -1, then the
       entire string will be added, up to the maximum number of characters that will fit on the line, or until a terminating null is reached.

RETURN VALUE

       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK on success (the SVr4 manuals specify only "an integer value other than  ERR")  upon
       successful completion.

NOTES

       Note that all of these routines except waddstr and waddnstr may be macros.

PORTABILITY

       All  these  entry points are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.  The XSI errors EILSEQ and EOVERFLOW, associated with extended-
       level conformance, are not yet detected.
