</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
       These routines insert a <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string (as many characters as
       will fit on the line) before the character  under  the  cursor,  as  if
       calling  <STRONG><A HREF="curs_ins_wch.3x.html">wins_wch(3x)</A></STRONG>.   All  characters to the right of the cursor are
       shifted right, with the possibility of the rightmost characters on  the
       line being lost.  No wrapping is performed.

       The  cursor  position  does  not  change  (after  moving  to  <EM>y</EM>,  <EM>x</EM>, if
       specified).

       The functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument insert a leading substring of
       at  most  <EM>n</EM>  <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG>  characters.   If  <EM>n</EM> is less than zero, the entire
       string is inserted (stopping on a L'\0' character).

       Special characters are handled as in <STRONG><A HREF="curs_add_wch.3x.html">wadd_wch(3x)</A></STRONG>.


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
       All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on success.

       X/Open  Curses  does  not   specify   any   error   conditions.    This
       implementation returns an error

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the <EM>win</EM> parameter is null or

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the <EM>wstr</EM> parameter is null or

       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the <STRONG>wins_wch</STRONG> function returns an error.

       Functions  prefixed with "mv" first perform cursor movement and fail if
       the position (<EM>y</EM>, <EM>x</EM>) is outside the window boundaries.


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE>
       All but <STRONG>wins_nwstr</STRONG> may be macros.

       If the first character in the string is a non-spacing character,  these
       functions will fail.  X/Open Curses does not define what will happen if
       a non-spacing character follows a control character.


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
       These functions are described in X/Open Curses,  Issue  4,  which  adds
       <EM>const</EM> qualifiers to the arguments.

       X/Open  states  that the entire string is inserted if <EM>n</EM> is less than 1.
       This is probably an  error,  because  it  is  inconsistent  with  other
       functions, and differs from the X/Open implementation on Solaris.
