curs_border(3X)						       curs_border(3X)

NAME
     curs_border:  border, wborder, box, hline, whline, vline, wvline - create
     curses borders, horizontal and vertical lines

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>
     int border(chtype ls, chtype rs, chtype ts, chtype bs,
       chtype tl, chtype tr, chtype bl, chtype br);
     int wborder(WINDOW *win, chtype ls, chtype rs,
       chtype ts, chtype bs, chtype tl, chtype tr,
       chtype bl, chtype br);
     int box(WINDOW *win, chtype verch, chtype horch);
     int hline(chtype ch, int n);
     int whline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);
     int vline(chtype ch, int n);
     int wvline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);

DESCRIPTION
     With the border, wborder and box routines, a border is drawn around the
     edges of the window.  The argument ls is a character and attributes used
     for the left side of the border, rs - right side, ts - top side, bs -
     bottom side, tl - top left-hand corner, tr - top right-hand corner, bl -
     bottom left-hand corner, and br - bottom right-hand corner.  If any of
     these arguments is zero, then the following default values (defined in
     curses.h) are used instead: ACS_VLINE, ACS_VLINE, ACS_HLINE, ACS_HLINE,
     ACS_ULCORNER, ACS_URCORNER, ACS_BLCORNER, ACS_BRCORNER.

     box(win, verch, horch) is a shorthand for the following call:
     wborder(win, verch, verch, horch, horch, 0, 0, 0, 0).

     hline and whline draw a horizontal (left to right) line using ch starting
     at the current cursor position in the window.  The current cursor
     position is not changed.  The line is at most n characters long, or as
     many as fit into the window.

     vline and wvline draw a vertical (top to bottom) line using ch starting
     at the current cursor position in the window.  The current cursor
     position is not changed.  The line is at most n characters long, or as
     many as fit into the window.

RETURN VALUE
     All routines return the integer OK, or a non-negative integer if immedok
     is set.

NOTES
     The header file curses.h automatically includes the header files stdio.h
     and unctrl.h.

     Note that border and box may be macros.
