<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
       These routines write the characters of the (null-terminat-
       ed) <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> character string <EM>wstr</EM> on the given window.  It
       is  similar  to constructing a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> for each wchar_t in
       the  string,  then  calling  <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG>  for  the  resulting
       <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG>.

       The <EM>mv</EM> routines perform cursor movement once, before writ-
       ing any characters.  Thereafter, the cursor is advanced as
       a side-effect of writing to the window.

       The  four  routines  with  <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at
       most <EM>n</EM> <STRONG>wchar_t</STRONG> characters.  If <EM>n</EM> is -1,  then  the  entire
       string  will be added, up to the maximum number of charac-
       ters that will fit on the line,  or  until  a  terminating
       null is reached.


</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUES</H2><PRE>
       All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on
       success.


</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
       Note that all of these routines except  <STRONG>waddnwstr</STRONG>  may  be
       macros.


</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
       All  these  entry  points  are described in the XSI Curses
       standard, Issue 4.
