Name

Syntax
       #include <cursesX.h>

       int prefresh(pad, pminrow, pmincol, sminrow, smincol, smaxrow, smaxcol)
       WINDOW ∗pad;
       int pminrow, pmincol, sminrow, smincol, smaxrow, smaxcol;

       int  pnoutrefresh(pad,  pminrow,	 pmincol,  sminrow,  smincol, smaxrow,

Description
       The routine copies the specified pad to the physical  terminal  screen.
       It takes account of what is already displayed on the screen to optimize
       cursor movement.

       The routine copies the named pad to the virtual screen.	It  then  com‐
       pares  the  virtual  screen  with  the physical screen and performs the
       actual update.

       These routines are analogous to the  routines  and  except  that	 pads,
       instead	of  windows,  are  involved.   Additional  parameters are also
       needed to indicate what part of the pad and screen are  involved.   The
       upper  left  corner of the part of the pad to be displayed is specified
       by and The co-ordinates and specify the edges of the  screen  rectangle
       that will contain the selected part of the pad.

       The  lower  right corner of the pad rectangle to be displayed is calcu‐
       lated from the screen co-ordinates.  This ensures that the screen  rec‐
       tangle and the pad rectangle are the same size.

       Both  rectangles	 must  be  entirely  contained within their respective
       structures.

Return Values
       The and functions return OK on success and ERR on error.
