Re: UTF-8 curses

Have I understood the Single UNIX Spec correctly, I wonder.

Suppose there is "AO" on the screen and I move the cursor to where the
A is. I then call addstr() to output a single "U". I then call
addstr() again to output a single combining umlaut. The umlaut goes
onto the O and the final state is "UÖ" (U followed by O-umlaut). Is
that right?

But if I had concatenated the two strings and done a single call to
addstr() the result would have been "ÜO" (U-umlaut followed by O).
