       curs_inswch(3curses)                            curs_inswch(3curses)


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

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [flag . . .] file -lcurses [library . . .]
             #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
             These routines insert the character wch, holding a wchar_t
             character, before the character under the cursor.  All
             characters to the right of the cursor are moved one space to
             the right, with the possibility 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 Values
             All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an
             integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.

       NOTICES
             The header file curses.h automatically includes the header
             files stdio.h and unctrl.h.

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