int mvwins_wstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const wchar_t *wstr);

Description

These functions insert a wchar_t character string (as many wchar_t characters as will fit on the line) in the current or specified window immediately before the current or specified position.

Any non-spacing characters in the string are associated with the first spacing character in the string that precedes the non-spacing characters. If the first character in the string is a non-spacing character, these functions will fail.

These functions do not perform wrapping. These functions do not advance the cursor position. These functions perform special-character processing.

The ins_nwstr(3curses), mvins_nwstr(3curses), mvwins_nwstr(3curses) and wins_nwstr(3curses) functions insert at most n wchar_t characters. If n is less than 1, then the entire string is inserted.

Return value

Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

Errors

No errors are defined.
