These functions write the (null-terminated) character
string <EM>str</EM> on the given window. It is similar to calling
<STRONG>waddch</STRONG> once for each character in the string.
The <EM>mv</EM> functions perform cursor movement once, before
writing any characters. Thereafter, the cursor is ad-
vanced as a side-effect of writing to the window.
The four functions with <EM>n</EM> as the last argument write at
most <EM>n</EM> characters, or until a terminating null is reached.
If <EM>n</EM> is -1, then the entire string will be added.
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
All functions return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
on success.
X/Open does not define any error conditions. This imple-
mentation returns an error
<STRONG>o</STRONG> if the window pointer is null or
<STRONG>o</STRONG> if the string pointer is null or
<STRONG>o</STRONG> if the corresponding calls to <STRONG>waddch</STRONG> return an error.
Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is
outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.

All of these functions except <STRONG>waddnstr</STRONG> may be macros.

These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard,
Issue 4.
