NAME
     curs_inswstr: inswstr, insnwstr, winswstr, winsnwstr,
          mvinswstr, mvinsnwstr, mvwinswstr, mvwinsnwstr - insert
          wchar_t string before character under the cursor in a
          curses window

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int inswstr(char *wstr);
     int insnwstr(char *wstr, int n);
     int winswstr(WINDOW *win, char *wstr);
     int winsnwstr(WINDOW *win, char *wstr, int n);
     int mvinswstr(int y, int x, char *wstr);
     int mvinsnwstr(int y, int x, char *wstr, int n);
     int mvwinswstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *wstr);
     int mvwinsnwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *wstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
     With these routines, a wchar_t character string (as many
     wchar_t characters as will fit on the line) is inserted
     before the character under the cursor.  All characters to
     the right of the cursor are moved to the right, with the
     possibility of the rightmost characters 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.)  The four routines with
     n as the last argument insert at most n wchar_t characters.
     If n<=0, then the entire string is inserted.

     If a character in wstr is a tab, newline, carriage return or
     backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately within the win-
     dow.  A newline also does a clrtoeol before moving.  Tabs
     are considered to be at every eighth column.  If a character
     in wstr is another control character, it is drawn in the ^X
     notation.  Calling winch after adding a control character
     (and moving to it, if necessary) does not return the control
     character, but instead returns the representation of the
     control character.

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 all but winsnwstr may be macros.
