</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>add_wch</STRONG>, <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvadd_wch</STRONG>, and <STRONG>mvwadd_wch</STRONG> functions
put the complex character <EM>wch</EM> into the given window at its
current position, which is then advanced. These functions
perform wrapping and special-character processing as fol-
lows:
- If <EM>wch</EM> refers to a spacing character, then any previ-
ous character at that location is removed. A new
character specified by <EM>wch</EM> is placed at that location
with rendition specified by <EM>wch</EM>. The cursor then
advances to the next spacing character on the screen.
- If <EM>wch</EM> refers to a non-spacing character, all previ-
ous characters at that location are preserved. The
non-spacing characters of <EM>wch</EM> are added to the spac-
ing complex character, and the rendition specified by
<EM>wch</EM> is ignored.
- If the character part of <EM>wch</EM> is a tab, newline,
backspace or other control character, the window is
updated and the cursor moves as if <STRONG><A HREF="addch.3x.html">addch(3x)</A></STRONG> were
called.
The <STRONG>echo_wchar</STRONG> function is functionally equivalent to a
call to <STRONG>add_wch</STRONG> followed by a call to <STRONG>refresh</STRONG>. Similarly,
the <STRONG>wecho_wchar</STRONG> is functionally equivalent to a call to
<STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG> followed by a call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>. The knowledge
that only a single character is being output is taken into
consideration and, for non-control characters, a consider-
able performance gain might be seen by using the *<STRONG>echo</STRONG>*
functions instead of their equivalents.
</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 <STRONG>add_wch</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvadd_wch</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwadd_wch</STRONG>, and <STRONG>echo_wchar</STRONG>
may be macros.
</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
All these functions are described in the XSI Curses stan-
dard, Issue 4. The defaults specified for forms-drawing
characters apply in the POSIX locale.
XSI documents constants beginning with <STRONG>WACS_</STRONG> which are
used for line-drawing. Those are not currently imple-
mented in <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>.
