The print statements failed with the "." and the "/n" so I had to put the "." in quote and put some other quotes in to accomodate spacing and the /n got removed... but it works
Thank you.

add_wch
curs_add_wch(3X) curs_add_wch(3X)
NAME
add_wch, wadd_wch, mvadd_wch, mvwadd_wch, echo_wchar, wecho_wchar - add a complex character and rendition to a curses window, then advance
the cursor
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int add_wch( const cchar_t *wch );
int wadd_wch( WINDOW *win, const cchar_t *wch );
int mvadd_wch( int y, int x, const cchar_t *wch );
int mvwadd_wch( WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const cchar_t *wch );
int echo_wchar( const cchar_t *wch );
int wecho_wchar( WINDOW *win, const cchar_t *wch );
DESCRIPTION
The add_wch, wadd_wch, mvadd_wch, and mvwadd_wch functions put the complex character wch into the given window at its current position,
which is then advanced. These functions perform wrapping and special-character processing as follows:
- If wch refers to a spacing character, then any previous character at that location is removed. A new character specified by wch is
placed at that location with rendition specified by wch. The cursor then advances to the next spacing character on the screen.
- If wch refers to a non-spacing character, all previous characters at that location are preserved. The non-spacing characters of wch
are added to the spacing complex character, and the rendition specified by wch is ignored.
- If the character part of wch is a tab, newline, backspace or other control character, the window is updated and the cursor moves as if
addch were called.
The echo_wchar function is functionally equivalent to a call to add_wch followed by a call to refresh. Similarly, the wecho_wchar is func-
tionally equivalent to a call to wadd_wch followed by a call to wrefresh. The knowledge that only a single character is being output is
taken into consideration and, for non-control characters, a considerable performance gain might be seen by using the *echo* functions
instead of their equivalents.
RETURN VALUES
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK on success.
NOTES
Note that add_wch, mvadd_wch, mvwadd_wch, and echo_wchar may be macros.
PORTABILITY
All these functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. The defaults specified for forms-drawing characters apply in the
POSIX locale.
XSI documents constants beginning with WACS_ which are used for line-drawing. Those are not currently implemented in ncurses.
