NAME

       addchstr,  addchnstr,  waddchstr,  waddchnstr,  mvaddchstr,  mvaddchnstr,  mvwaddchstr,	mvwaddchnstr  -  add  a  string of characters (and
       attributes) to a curses window

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int addchstr(const chtype *chstr);
       int addchnstr(const chtype *chstr, int n);
       int waddchstr(WINDOW *win, const chtype *chstr);
       int waddchnstr(WINDOW *win, const chtype *chstr, int n);
       int mvaddchstr(int y, int x, const chtype *chstr);
       int mvaddchnstr(int y, int x, const chtype *chstr, int n);
       int mvwaddchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const chtype *chstr);
       int mvwaddchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const chtype *chstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       These routines copy chstr into the window image structure at and after the current cursor position.  The four routines with n as  the  last
       argument copy at most n elements, but no more than will fit on the line.  If n=-1 then the whole string is copied, to the maximum number of
       characters that will fit on the line.

       The window cursor is not advanced, and these routines work faster than waddnstr.  On the other hand, they don't perform any kind of  check-
       ing  (such as for the newline, backspace, or carriage return characters), they don't advance the current cursor position, they don't expand
       other control characters to ^-escapes, and they truncate the string if it crosses the right margin, rather then wrapping it around  to  the
       new line.

RETURN VALUES

       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, unless otherwise noted in the preceding routine descriptions.

NOTES

       Note that all routines except waddchnstr may be macros.

PORTABILITY

       All these entry points are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
