Amit Daniel Kachhap | e6a01f5 | 2011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530 | [diff] [blame] | 76 | The <STRONG>border</STRONG>, <STRONG>wborder</STRONG> and <STRONG>box</STRONG> routines draw a box around the |
| 77 | edges of a window. Other than the window, each argument |
| 78 | is a character with attributes: |
| 79 | |
| 80 | <EM>ls</EM> - left side, |
| 81 | <EM>rs</EM> - right side, |
| 82 | <EM>ts</EM> - top side, |
| 83 | <EM>bs</EM> - bottom side, |
| 84 | <EM>tl</EM> - top left-hand corner, |
| 85 | <EM>tr</EM> - top right-hand corner, |
| 86 | <EM>bl</EM> - bottom left-hand corner, and |
| 87 | <EM>br</EM> - bottom right-hand corner. |
| 88 | |
| 89 | If any of these arguments is zero, then the corresponding |
| 90 | default values (defined in <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG>) are used instead: |
| 91 | |
| 92 | <STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>, |
| 93 | <STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>, |
| 94 | <STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>, |
| 95 | <STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>, |
| 96 | <STRONG>ACS_ULCORNER</STRONG>, |
| 97 | <STRONG>ACS_URCORNER</STRONG>, |
| 98 | <STRONG>ACS_LLCORNER</STRONG>, |
| 99 | <STRONG>ACS_LRCORNER</STRONG>. |
| 100 | |
| 101 | <STRONG>box(</STRONG><EM>win</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>)</STRONG> is a shorthand for the following |
| 102 | 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> |
| 103 | <STRONG>0)</STRONG>. |
| 104 | |
| 105 | The <STRONG>hline</STRONG> and <STRONG>whline</STRONG> functions draw a horizontal (left to |
| 106 | right) line using <EM>ch</EM> starting at the current cursor posi- |
| 107 | tion in the window. The current cursor position is not |
| 108 | changed. The line is at most <EM>n</EM> characters long, or as |
| 109 | many as fit into the window. |
| 110 | |
| 111 | The <STRONG>vline</STRONG> and <STRONG>wvline</STRONG> functions draw a vertical (top to |
| 112 | bottom) line using <EM>ch</EM> starting at the current cursor posi- |
| 113 | tion in the window. The current cursor position is not |
| 114 | changed. The line is at most <EM>n</EM> characters long, or as |
| 115 | many as fit into the window. |

Amit Daniel Kachhap | e6a01f5 | 2011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530 | [diff] [blame] | 120 | All routines return the integer <STRONG>OK</STRONG>. The SVr4.0 manual |
| 121 | says "or a non-negative integer if <STRONG>immedok</STRONG> is set", but |
| 122 | this appears to be an error. |
| 123 | |
| 124 | X/Open does not define any error conditions. This imple- |
Steve Kondik | ae271bc | 2015-11-15 02:50:53 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 125 | mentation returns an error if the window pointer is null. |
| 126 | |
| 127 | Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move- |
| 128 | ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is |
| 129 | outside the window, or if the window pointer is null. |
