man addch:

       The  addch,  waddch, mvaddch and mvwaddch routines put the
       character ch into the given window at its  current  window
       position,  which  is then advanced.  They are analogous to
       putchar in stdio(3).  If the advance is at the right  mar-
       gin,  the  cursor  automatically wraps to the beginning of
       the next line.  At the bottom  of  the  current  scrolling
       region,  if  scrollok  is enabled, the scrolling region is
       scrolled up one line.
