insnstr(3X) insnstr(3X)
NAME
insnstr, insstr, mvinsnstr, mvinsstr, mvwinsnstr, mvwinsstr, winsnstr,
winsstr - insert a multi-byte character string into a window
SYNOPSIS
cc [flag ...] file ... -lcurses [library ...]
#include <curses.h>
int insnstr(const char *str, int n);
int insstr(const char *str);
int mvinsnstr(int y, int x, const char *str, int n);
int mvinsstr(int y, int x, const char *str);
int mvwinsnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const char *str, int n);
int mvwinsstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const char *str);
int winsnstr(WINDOW *win, const char *str, int n);
int winsstr(WINDOW *win, const char *str);
DESCRIPTION
These functions insert a character string (as many characters as will
fit on the line) before the current or specified position in the
current or specified window.
These functions do not advance the cursor position. These functions
perform special-character processing. The insnstr() and winsnstr()
functions perform wrapping. The insstr() and winsstr() functions do
not perform wrapping.
The insnstr(), mvinsnstr(), mvwinsnstr() and winsnstr() functions
insert at most n bytes. If n is less than 1, the entire string is
inserted.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they
return ERR.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
NOTES
Since the string may contain multi-byte characters, there might not be
a one-to-one correspondence between the number of column positions
occupied by the characters and the number of bytes in the string.
