.SH NAME
|
|
\fBinsch\fP,
|
|
\fBwinsch\fP,
|
|
\fBmvinsch\fP,
|
|
\fBmvwinsch\fP \- insert a character before cursor in a \fBcurses\fP window
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
\fB#include <curses.h>\fP
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBint insch(chtype \fIch\fB);\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
\fBint winsch(WINDOW *\fIwin\fB, chtype \fIch\fB);\fR
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBint mvinsch(int \fIy\fB, int \fIx\fB, chtype \fIch\fB);\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
\fBint mvwinsch(WINDOW *\fIwin\fB, int \fIy\fB, int \fIx\fB, chtype \fIch\fB);\fR
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
These routines insert the character \fIch\fP before the character under the
|
|
cursor.
|
|
All characters to the right of the cursor are moved one space to the
|
|
right, with the possibility of the rightmost character on the line being lost.
|
|
The insertion operation does not change the cursor position.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
All routines that return an integer return \fBERR\fP upon failure and \fBOK\fP
|
|
(SVr4 specifies only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fP")
|
|
upon successful completion,
|
|
unless otherwise noted in the preceding routine descriptions.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Functions with a \*(``mv\*('' prefix first perform a cursor movement using
|
|
\fBwmove\fP, and return an error if the position is outside the window,
|
|
or if the window pointer is null.
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
These routines do not necessarily imply use of a hardware insert character
|
|
feature.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that \fBinsch\fP, \fBmvinsch\fP, and \fBmvwinsch\fP may be macros.
|
|
.SH PORTABILITY
|
|
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
|
|
.SH SEE ALSO
|
|
\fBcurses\fP(3).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Comparable functions in the wide-character (ncursesw) library are
|
|
described in
|
|
\fBcurs_ins_wch\fP(3).
