.TH curs_addstr 3 "" .SH NAME \fBaddstr\fR, \fBaddnstr\fR, \fBwaddstr\fR, \fBwaddnstr\fR, \fBmvaddstr\fR, \fBmvaddnstr\fR, \fBmvwaddstr\fR, \fBmvwaddnstr\fR - add a string of characters to a \fBncurses\fR window and advance cursor .SH SYNOPSIS \fB#include \fR \fBint addstr(char *str);\fR .br \fBint addnstr(char *str, int n);\fR .br \fBint waddstr(WINDOW *win, char *str);\fR .br \fBint waddnstr(WINDOW *win, char *str, int n);\fR .br \fBint mvaddstr(int y, int x, char *str);\fR .br \fBint mvaddnstr(int y, int x, char *str, int n);\fR .br \fBint mvwaddstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str);\fR .br \fBint mvwaddnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *str, int n);\fR .SH DESCRIPTION These routines write the characters of the null terminated character string \fIstr\fR on the given window. It is similar to calling \fBwaddch\fR once for each character in the string. The four routines with \fIn\fR as the last argument write at most \fIn\fR characters. If \fIn\fR is negative, then the entire string will be added. .SH RETURN VALUE All routines return the integer \fBERR\fR upon failure and an integer value other than \fBERR\fR upon successful completion. .SH NOTES Note that all of these routines except \fBwaddstr\fR and \fBwaddnstr\fR may be macros. .SH SEE ALSO \fBncurses\fR(3), \fBcurs_addch\fR(3). .\"# .\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS .\"# Local Variables: .\"# mode:nroff .\"# fill-column:79 .\"# End:
