NAME
insch, mvinsch, mvwinsch, winsch - insert a single-byte character and
rendition into a window
SYNOPSIS
cc [flag ...] file ... -lcurses [library ...]
#include <curses.h>
int insch(chtype ch);
int mvinsch(int y, int x, chtype ch);
int mvwinsch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch);
int winsch(WINDOW *win, chtype ch);
DESCRIPTION
These functions insert the character and rendition from ch into the
current or specified window at the current or specified position.
These functions do not perform wrapping. These functions do not
advance the cursor position. These functions perform special-character
processing, with the exception that if a newline is inserted into the
last line of a window and scrolling is not enabled, the behavior is
unspecified.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they
return ERR.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
NOTES
These functions are only guaranteed to operate reliably on character
sets in which each character fits into a single byte, whose attributes
can be expressed using only constants with the A prefix.
