NAME
       hline,  mvhline,	 mvvline,  mvwhline, mvwvline, vline, whline, wvline -
       use single-byte characters (and renditions) to draw lines

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 hline(chtype ch, int n);

       int mvhline(int y, int x, chtype ch, int n);

       int mvvline(int y, int x, chtype ch, int n);

       int mvwhline(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch, int n);

       int mvwvline(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch, int n);

       int vline(chtype ch, int n);

       int whline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);

       int wvline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);

DESCRIPTION
       The hline(), vline(), whline(), wvline() functions draw a horizontal or
       vertical line, in either the window stdscr or win  starting at the cur‐
       rent cursor position. The line is drawn using the character ch and is a
       maximum	of  n  positions long, or as many as will fit into the window.
       If ch is 0 (zero), the default  horizontal  or  vertical	 character  is
       used.

       The  mvhline(), mvvline(), mvwhline(), mvwvline() functions are similar
       to the previous group of functions but the line begins at cursor	 posi‐
       tion specified by x and y.

       The functions with names ending with hline() draw horizontal lines pro‐
       ceeding towards the last column of the same line.  The  functions  with
       names  ending  with  vline() draw vertical lines proceeding towards the
       last column of the same line.

       These functions do not change the position of the cursor.

PARAMETERS
       ch
	      Is the character used to draw the line.

       n
	      Is the maximum number of characters in the line.

       y
	      Is the y (row) coordinate for the start of the line.

       x
	      Is the x (column) coordinate for the start of the line.

       win
	      Is a pointer to a window.

RETURN VALUES
       On success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

ERRORS
       None
