NAME
       cursaddwchstr:  addwchstr, addwchnstr, waddwchstr, waddwchnstr,
       mvaddwchstr, mvaddwchnstr, mvwaddwchstr, mvwaddwchnstr - add string
       of wchart characters to a curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       int addwchstr(chtype *wchstr);
       int addwchnstr(chtype *wchstr, int n);
       int waddwchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr);
       int waddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr, int n);
       int mvaddwchstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
       int mvaddwchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr, int n);
       int mvwaddwchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);
       int mvwaddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x,
            chtype *wchstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
       All of these routines copy wchstr which points to the string of
       wchart characters directly into the window image structure starting
       at the current cursor position.  The four routines with  n as the
       last argument copy at most n elements, but no more than will fit on
       the line.  If n=-1 then the whole string is copied, to the maximum
       number that fit on the line.

       The position of the window cursor is NOT advanced.  These routines
       works faster than waddnwstr because they merely copy wchstr into the
       window image structure.  On the other hand, care must be taken when
       using these functions because they don't perform any kind of checking
       (such as for the newline character), they don't advance the current
       cursor position, and they truncate the string, rather then wrapping
       it around to the new line.

RETURN VALUE
       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value
       other than ERR upon successful completion, unless otherwise noted in
       the preceding routine descriptions.

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

       Note that all routines except waddwchnstr may be macros.
