       int chgat(int n, attr_t attr, short color, const void *opts);

       int mvchgat(int y, int x, int n, attr_t attr, short color,
	    const void *opts);

       int mvwchgat(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, int n, attr_t attr,
	    short color, const void *opts);

DESCRIPTION
       These  functions change the renditions of the next n characters in  the
       current or specified window (or of the remaining characters on the cur‐
       rent or specified line, if n is −1),  beginning at the current or spec‐
       ified  cursor position. The attributes and colors are specified by attr
       and color as for setcchar(3XCURSES).

       These function neither update the cursor nor perform wrapping.

       A value of n that is greater than the remaining	characters on  a  line
       is not an error.

       The opts argument is reserved for definition in a future release.  Cur‐
       rently, the application must provide a null pointer for opts.
