  71        These functions copy the (null-terminated) <EM>chstr</EM> array in-
  72        to the window image structure starting at the current cur-
  73        sor position.  The four functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argu-
  74        ment copy at most <EM>n</EM> elements, but no more than will fit on
  75        the  line.  If <STRONG>n</STRONG>=<STRONG>-1</STRONG> then the whole array is copied, to the
  76        maximum number of characters that will fit on the line.
  77
  78        The window cursor is <EM>not</EM> advanced.  These  functions  work
  79        faster than <STRONG>waddnstr</STRONG>.  On the other hand:
  80
  81        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they do not perform checking (such as for the newline,
  82            backspace, or carriage return characters),
  83
  84        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they do not advance the current cursor position,
  85
  86        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they do not expand other control characters  to  ^-es-
  87            capes, and
  88
  89        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   they  truncate the string if it crosses the right mar-
  90            gin, rather than wrapping it around to the new line.

  93 </PRE>
  94 <H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
  95        All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure  and  <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
  96        on success.
  97
  98        X/Open  does not define any error conditions.  This imple-
  99        mentation returns an error if the window pointer is null.
 100
 101        Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor  move-
 102        ment  using  <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is
 103        outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
