NAME
       curs_inswstr,  inswstr,	insnwstr, winswstr, winsnwstr, mvinswstr, mvinsnwstr, mvwinswstr, mvwinsnwstr - Insert a wchar_t string before the
       character under the cursor in a Curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       int inswstr(
	       wchar_t *wstr ); int insnwstr(
	       wchar_t *wstr,
	       int n ); int winswstr(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       wchar_t *wstr ); int winsnwstr(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       wchar_t *wstr,
	       int n ); int mvinswstr(
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       wchar_t *wstr ); int mvinsnwstr(
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       wchar_t *wstr,
	       int n ); int mvwinswstr(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       wchar_t *wstr ); int mvwinsnwstr(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       wchar_t *wstr,
	       int n );

LIBRARY
       Curses Library (libcurses)

DESCRIPTION
       These routines insert a wchar_t character string (as many wchar_t characters as will fit on the line) before the character under  the  cur-
       sor.  All  characters to the right of the cursor are moved to the right, with the possibility of the rightmost characters on the line being
       lost. The routines do not change the cursor position after moving to y, x, if specified.  (This does not imply use of the  hardware  insert
       character feature.)

       The four routines with n as the last argument insert at most n wchar_t characters.  If n<=0, then the routines insert the entire string.

       If  a  character  in  wstr is a tab, newline, carriage return, or backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately within the window. A newline
       also results in clrtoeol before moving.	Tabs are considered to be at every eighth column. If a character in wstr is another control  char-
       acter,  it is drawn in the ^X notation. Calling winch after adding a control character (and moving to it, if necessary) does not return the
       control character, but instead returns the representation of the control character.

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

       Note that all but winsnwstr may be macros.

       The routines described on this reference page are among the MNLS Curses functions that are not included in the X/Open Curses CAE specifica-
       tion.  MNLS  routines are supported only for backward compatibility reasons. Use the *ins_wstr and *ins_nwstr functions in new applications
       (see curs_ins_wstr(3)).

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