NAME

       curs_insstr, insstr, insnstr, winsstr, winsnstr, mvinsstr, mvinsnstr, mvwinsstr, mvwinsnstr - insert string before character under the cur-
       sor in a curses window

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ]
       #include <curses.h>

       int insstr(char *str);

       int insnstr(char *str, int n);

       int winsstr(WINDOW *win, char *str);

       int winsnstr(WINDOW *win, char *str, int n);

       int mvinsstr(int y, int x, char *str);

       int mvinsnstr(int y, int x, char *str, int n);

       int mvwinsstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str);

       int mvwinsnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       With these routines, a character string (as many 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 characters. If n<=0, then the entire string is inserted.

       If  a character in str is a tab, newline, carriage return or backspace, the cursor is moved appropriately within the window. A newline also
       does a clrtoeol() before moving. Tabs are considered to be at every eighth column. If a character in str 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 VALUES

       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.
