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

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ]
       #include <curses.h>

       int addstr(char *str);

       int addnstr(char *str, int n);

       int waddstr(WINDOW *win, char *str);

       int waddnstr(WINDOW *win, char *str, int n);

       int mvaddstr(int y, int x, char *str);

       int mvaddnstr(int y, int x, char *str, int n);

       int mvwaddstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str);

       int mvwaddnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str, int n);

DESCRIPTION
       All of these routines write all 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 negative,
       then the entire string will be added.

RETURN VALUES
       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.
