addnwstr function in dvtm.c #64

What is the addnwstr function supposed to do? It is only called in one place and doesn't seem to get defined anywhere.

rpmohn commented 7 years ago

It's a curses function to "add a string of wide characters to a curses window and advance cursor". See https://linux.die.net/man/3/addnwstr .

Right. In that case, for Ubuntu 16.04 I can squash the complaint that addnwstr is implicitly declared:

The normal /usr/include/curses.h doesn't include reference to addnwstr.
