| 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 attributes: |
| |
| <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 values (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>wborder(</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 posi- |
| tion in the window. The current cursor position is not |
| changed. The line is at most <EM>n</EM> characters 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 using <EM>ch</EM> starting at the current cursor posi- |
| tion in the window. The current 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 imple- |
| mentation returns an error if the window pointer is null. |
| |
| Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move- |
| ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is |
| outside the window, or if the window pointer is null. |
| |

| <H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE> |
| The borders generated by these functions are <EM>inside</EM> bor- |
| ders (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. |

| <H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE> |
| 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. |
