NAME

       addwstr, addnwstr, waddwstr, waddnwstr, mvaddwstr, mvaddnwstr,
       mvwaddwstr, mvwaddnwstr - add a string of wide characters to a curses
       window and advance cursor

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int addwstr(const wchar_t *wstr);
       int addnwstr(const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int waddwstr(WINDOW *win, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int waddnwstr(WINDOW *win, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int mvaddwstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int mvaddnwstr(int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);
       int mvwaddwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr);
       int mvwaddnwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       These  routines  write  the characters of the (null-terminated) wchar_t
       character  string  wstr  on  the  given  window.   It  is  similar   to
       constructing  a  cchar_t  for  each wchar_t in the string, then calling
       wadd_wch for the resulting cchar_t.

       The mv routines  perform  cursor  movement  once,  before  writing  any
       characters.   Thereafter,  the  cursor  is advanced as a side-effect of
       writing to the window.

       The four routines with n as the last argument write at most  n  wchar_t
       characters.   If  n  is -1, then the entire string will be added, up to
       the maximum number of characters that will fit on the line, or until  a
       terminating null is reached.

RETURN VALUES

       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK on success.

NOTES

       Note that all of these routines except waddnwstr may be macros.

PORTABILITY

       All  these entry points are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue
       4.
