NAME
       copywin - overlay or overwrite any portion of window

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L	/usr/xpg4/lib \
	-R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int copywin(const WINDOW *srcwin, WINDOW *dstwin, int sminrow, int smincol,
	    int dminrow, int dmincol, int dmaxrow, int dmaxcol, int overlay);

PARAMETERS
       srcwin
		  Is a pointer to the source window to be copied.

       dstwin
		  Is  a	 pointer  to the destination window to be overlayed or
		  overwritten.

       sminrow
		  Is the row coordinate of the upper left corner of  the  rec‐
		  tangular area	 on the source window to be copied.

       smincol
		  Is  the  column  coordinate  of the upper left corner of the
		  rectangular area  on the source window to be copied.

       dminrow
		  Is the row coordinate of the upper left corner of  the  rec‐
		  tangular  area  on the destination window to be overlayed or
		  overwritten.

       dmincol
		  Is the column coordinate of the upper	 left  corner  of  the
		  rectangular  area   on destination window to be overlayed or
		  overwritten.

       dmaxrow
		  Is the row coordinate of the lower right corner of the  rec‐
		  tangular  area  on the destination window to be overlayed or
		  overwritten.

       dmaxcol
		  Is the column coordinate of the lower right  corner  of  the
		  rectangular  area  on the destination window to be overlayed
		  or overwritten.

       overlay
		  Is a TRUE or FALSE value that determines whether the	desti‐
		  nation window is overlayed or overwritten.

DESCRIPTION
       The copywin() function provides a finer granularity of control over the
       overlay(3XCURSES) and overwrite(3XCURSES) functions.  As	 in  the  pre‐
       fresh()	function  (see	newpad(3XCURSES)), a rectangle is specified in
       the destination window, (dminrow, dmincol) and (dmaxrow, dmaxcol),  and
       the upper-left-corner coordinates of the source window, (smincol, smin‐
       row). If overlay is TRUE, then copying is non-destructive, as in	 over‐
       lay().  If  overlay  is FALSE, then copying is destructive, as in over‐
       write().

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, the copywin() function returns OK.	Other‐
       wise, it returns ERR.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
