NAME
curs_ins_wch, ins_wch, wins_wch, mvins_wch, mvwins_wch - Insert a complex character and rendition before the character under the cursor in a Curses window SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h> int ins_wch( const cchar_t *wch ); int wins_wch( WINDOW *win, 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 ); LIBRARY
Curses Library (libcurses) STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows: ins_wch, wins_wch, mvins_wch, mvwins_wch: XCURSES4.2 Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. DESCRIPTION
These functions insert the complex character wch, along with its rendition, in the current or specified window at the current or specified cursor position. These functions: Do not perform wrapping In other words, 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. Do not change the cursor position after moving to y, x, if specified This does not imply use of the hardware insert-character feature. Perform special-character processing NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>. Applications can use add_wch to add nonspacing characters to a spacing-complex character already in the window. Note that ins_wch, mvins_wch, and mvwins_wch may be macros. RETURN VALUES
All these functions return OK upon successful completion. Otherwise, they return ERR. SEE ALSO

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
