+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These routines insert a character string
+(as many characters as will fit on the line)
+before the character under the cursor,
+as if calling \fBwinsch\fP(3X).
+All characters to the right of the cursor are shifted right,
+with the possibility of the rightmost characters on the line being lost.
+No wrapping is performed.
+.PP
+The cursor position does not change
+(after moving to \fIy\fP, \fIx\fP, if specified).
+.PP
+The functions with \fIn\fP as the last argument
+insert a leading substring of at most \fIn\fP characters.
+If \fIn\fP is less than zero, the entire string is inserted
+(stopping on a NUL character).
+.PP
+Special characters are handled as in \fBwaddch\fP(3X).
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+All functions return the integer \fBERR\fP upon failure and \fBOK\fP on success.
+.PP
+X/Open does not define any error conditions.
+This implementation returns an error
+.bP
+if the \fIwin\fP parameter is null or
+.bP
+if the \fIstr\fP parameter is null or
+.bP
+the \fBwinsch\fP(3X) function returns an error.
+.PP
+Functions with a \*(``mv\*('' prefix first perform a cursor movement using
+\fBwmove\fP(3X), and return an error if the position is outside the window,
+or if the window pointer is null.
+.SH NOTES
+All but \fBwinsnstr\fP may be macros.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4,
+which adds \fI\%const\fP qualifiers to the arguments.
+.PP
+The Single Unix Specification, Version 2 states that
+\fBinsnstr\fP and \fBwinsnstr\fP perform wrapping.
+This is probably an error, since it makes this group of functions inconsistent.
+Also, no implementation of curses documents this inconsistency.
+.PP
+X/Open states that the entire string is inserted if \fIn\fP is less than 1.
+This is probably an error,
+because it is inconsistent with other functions,
+and differs from the SVr4 and X/Open implementations on Solaris.
