curs_inswstr: inswstr, insnwstr, winswstr, winsnwstr, mvinswstr, mvinsnwstr, mvwinswstr, mvwinsnwstr --
insert wchar_t string before character under the cursor in a curses window
Synopsis
cc [flag . . .] file -locurses [library . . .]
#include <ocurses.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
These routines insert a wchar_t character string
(as many wchar_t characters as will fit on the line)
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 window.
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 values
All routines return the integer ERR upon
failure and an integer value other than ERR
upon successful completion.
