NAME
       curs_insch,  insch,  winsch,  mvinsch,  mvwinsch	 -  Insert a character
       before the character under the cursor in a Curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       int insch(
	       chtype ch ); int winsch(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       chtype ch ); int mvinsch(
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       chtype ch ); int mvwinsch(
	       WINDOW *win,
	       int y,
	       int x,
	       chtype ch );

LIBRARY
       Curses Library (libcurses)

STANDARDS
       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry	 stan‐
       dards as follows:

       insch, winsch, mvinsch, mvwinsch:  XCURSES4.2

       Refer  to  the  standards(5)  reference page for more information about
       industry standards and associated tags.

DESCRIPTION
       These routines insert the character ch 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 cursor position does not change after moving to y,
       x, if specified. (This does not imply use of the hardware  insert-char‐
       acter feature.)

NOTES
       The  header  file  <curses.h>  automatically  includes  the header file
       <stdio.h>.

       Note that insch, mvinsch, and mvwinsch may be macros.

RETURN VALUES
       All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and OK upon successful
       completion.
