       NAME
             curs_addchstr: addchstr, addchnstr, waddchstr, waddchnstr,
             mvaddchstr, mvaddchnstr, mvwaddchstr, mvwaddchnstr - add
             string of characters (and attributes) to a curses window

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [flag . . .] file -lcurses [library . . .]
             #include <curses.h>
             int addchstr(chtype *chstr);
             int addchnstr(chtype *chstr, int n);
             int waddchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *chstr);
             int waddchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *chstr, int n);
             int mvaddchstr(int y, int x, chtype *chstr);
             int mvaddchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *chstr, int n);
             int mvwaddchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *chstr);
             int mvwaddchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *chstr, int n);

       DESCRIPTION
             All of these routines copy chstr 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 work faster than waddnstr because they merely copy
             chstr 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 Values
             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.
