| The <STRONG>border</STRONG>, <STRONG>wborder</STRONG> and <STRONG>box</STRONG> routines draw a box around the edges of a |
| window. Other than the window, each argument is a character with at- |
| tributes: |
| |
| <EM>ls</EM> - left side, |
| <EM>rs</EM> - right side, |
| <EM>ts</EM> - top side, |
| <EM>bs</EM> - bottom side, |
| <EM>tl</EM> - top left-hand corner, |
| <EM>tr</EM> - top right-hand corner, |
| <EM>bl</EM> - bottom left-hand corner, and |
| <EM>br</EM> - bottom right-hand corner. |
| |
| If any of these arguments is zero, then the corresponding default val- |
| ues (defined in <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG>) are used instead: |
| |
| <STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_ULCORNER</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_URCORNER</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_LLCORNER</STRONG>, |
| <STRONG>ACS_LRCORNER</STRONG>. |
| |
| <STRONG>box(</STRONG><EM>win</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>)</STRONG> is a shorthand for the following call: <STRONG>wbor-</STRONG> |
| <STRONG>der(</STRONG><EM>win</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <STRONG>0,</STRONG> <STRONG>0,</STRONG> <STRONG>0,</STRONG> <STRONG>0)</STRONG>. |
| |
| The <STRONG>hline</STRONG> and <STRONG>whline</STRONG> functions draw a horizontal (left to right) line |
| using <EM>ch</EM> starting at the current cursor position in the window. The |
| current cursor position is not changed. The line is at most <EM>n</EM> charac- |
| ters long, or as many as fit into the window. |
| |
| The <STRONG>vline</STRONG> and <STRONG>wvline</STRONG> functions draw a vertical (top to bottom) line us- |
| ing <EM>ch</EM> starting at the current cursor position in the window. The cur- |
| rent cursor position is not changed. The line is at most <EM>n</EM> characters |
| long, or as many as fit into the window. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE> |
| All routines return the integer <STRONG>OK</STRONG>. The SVr4.0 manual says "or a non- |
| negative integer if <STRONG>immedok</STRONG> is set", but this appears to be an error. |
| |
| X/Open does not define any error conditions. This implementation re- |
| turns an error if the window pointer is null. |
| |
| Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using |
| <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if |
| the window pointer is null. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE> |
| The borders generated by these functions are <EM>inside</EM> borders (this is |
| also true of SVr4 curses, though the fact is not documented). |
| |
| Note that <STRONG>border</STRONG> and <STRONG>box</STRONG> may be macros. |
| |

| These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. The |
| standard specifies that they return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> on failure, but specifies no |
| error conditions. |
