| These functions copy the (null-terminated) <EM>chstr</EM> array into the window |
| image structure starting at the current cursor position. The four |
| functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument copy at most <EM>n</EM> elements, but no |
| more than will fit on the line. If <STRONG>n</STRONG>=<STRONG>-1</STRONG> then the whole array is |
| copied, to the maximum number of characters that will fit on the line. |
| |
| The window cursor is <EM>not</EM> advanced. These functions work faster than |
| <STRONG>waddnstr</STRONG>. On the other hand: |
| |
| <STRONG>o</STRONG> they do not perform checking (such as for the newline, backspace, |
| or carriage return characters), |
| |
| <STRONG>o</STRONG> they do not advance the current cursor position, |
| |
| <STRONG>o</STRONG> they do not expand other control characters to ^-escapes, and |
| |
| <STRONG>o</STRONG> they truncate the string if it crosses the right margin, rather |
| than wrapping it around to the new line. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE> |
| All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on success. |
| |
| X/Open does not define any error conditions. This implementation re- |
| turns an error if the window pointer is null. |
| |
| Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using |
| <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if |
| the window pointer is null. |
