These functions add character strings to
stdscr or to the specified window.
The
addstr() function will add the characters passed in
string to
stdscr starting at the current cursor position. Any background attributes currently set on
stdscr will be applied to the added character. The
waddstr() function does the same as
addstr() but adds the string to the window specified by
win().
The
addnstr() function will add the contents of
string to
stdscr but will limit the number of characters added to be, at most,
len. If
len is -1 then
addnstr will add the number of characters contained in the null terminated string
string. Any background attributes currently set on
stdscr will be applied to the added character. The
waddnstr() function does the same as
addnstr but adds the string to the window specified by
win.
The functions
mvaddstr(),
mwaddnstr(),
mvwaddstr() and
mvwaddnstr() are the same as the functions
addstr(),
waddstr(),
waddstr() and
waddnstr(), respectively, excepting that
wmove() is called to move the cursor to the position specified by
y,
x before the string is added to the window.
