	       WINDOW *win,
	       chtype ch ); int mvinsch(
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       chtype ch ); int mvwinsch(
	       WINDOW *win,

DESCRIPTION
       These routines insert the character ch before the character under the cursor. 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. The cursor position does not change after	moving	to
       y, x, if specified. (This does not imply use of the hardware insert-character feature.)

NOTES
       The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>.

       Note that insch, mvinsch, and mvwinsch may be macros.

RETURN VALUES
       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK upon successful completion.
