int ripoffline(int line, int (*init)(WINDOW *win, int width));
PARAMETERS
line
determines whether the screen line being reserved comes from
the top of stdscr (line is positive) or the bottom (line is
negative).
init
Is a pointer to a function that initializes the one-line win‐
dow.
win
Is a pointer to one-line window created by this function.
width
Is the number of columns in the window pointed to by the win
parameter.
DESCRIPTION
The ripoffline() function reserves a screen line as a one line window.
To use this function, it must be called before you call
initscr(3XCURSES) or newterm(3XCURSES). When initscr() or newterm() is
called, so is the function pointed to by init. The function pointed to
by init takes two arguments: a pointer to the one-line window and the
number of columns in that window. This function cannot use the LINES or
COLS variables and cannot call wrefresh(3XCURSES) or doup‐
date(3XCURSES), but may call wnoutrefresh(3XCURSES).
RETURN VALUES
The rioffline() function always returns OK.
ERRORS
None.
