curs_inswch(3X)                22 Aug 1991                  curs_inswch(3X)

NAME
     cursinswch:  inswch, winswch, mvinswch, mvwinswch - insert a wchart
     character before the character under the cursor in a curses window

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int inswch(chtype wch);
     int winswch(WINDOW *win, chtype wch);
     int mvinswch(int y, int x, chtype wch);
     int mvwinswch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype wch);

DESCRIPTION
     With these routines, the character wch holding a wchart character is
     inserted before the character under the cursor. All characters to the
     right of the cursor are moved one space to the right, with the possi-
     bility 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.)

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

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

     Note that inswch, mvinswch, and mvwinswch may be macros.

SEE ALSO
