+.SH NAME
+\fBinsch\fR,
+\fBwinsch\fR,
+\fBmvinsch\fR,
+\fBmvwinsch\fR - insert a character before cursor in a \fBcurses\fR window
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fB#include <curses.h>\fR
+.sp
+\fBint insch(chtype ch);\fR
+.br
+\fBint winsch(WINDOW *win, chtype ch);\fR
+.br
+\fBint mvinsch(int y, int x, chtype ch);\fR
+.br
+\fBint mvwinsch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch);\fR
+.br
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These routines insert the character \fIch\fR 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\fR upon failure and OK (SVr4
+specifies only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fR") upon successful
+completion, unless otherwise noted in the preceding routine descriptions.
+.SH NOTES
+These routines do not necessarily imply use of a hardware insert character
+feature.
+.PP
+Note that \fBinsch\fR, \fBmvinsch\fR, and \fBmvwinsch\fR may be macros.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+\fBcurses\fR(3X).
+.PP
+Comparable functions in the wide-character (ncursesw) library are
+described in
+\fBcurs_ins_wch\fR(3X).
