  71        These  functions  write  the  (null-terminated)  character
  72        string <EM>str</EM> on the given window.  It is similar to  calling
  73        <STRONG>waddch</STRONG> once for each character in the string.
  74
  75        The  <EM>mv</EM>  functions  perform  cursor  movement once, before
  76        writing any characters.  Thereafter,  the  cursor  is  ad-
  77        vanced as a side-effect of writing to the window.
  78
  79        The  four  functions  with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at
  80        most <EM>n</EM> characters, or until a terminating null is reached.
  81        If <EM>n</EM> is -1, then the entire string will be added.
  82
  83
  84 </PRE>
  85 <H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
  86        All  functions  return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
  87        on success.
  88
  89        X/Open does not define any error conditions.  This  imple-
  90        mentation returns an error
  91
  92        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the window pointer is null or
  93
  94        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the string pointer is null or
  95
  96        <STRONG>o</STRONG>   if the corresponding calls to <STRONG>waddch</STRONG> return an error.
  97
  98        Functions  with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
  99        ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the  position  is
 100        outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
