ripoffline(3XCURSES)	X/Open Curses Library Functions	  ripoffline(3XCURSES)

NAME
       ripoffline - reserve screen line for dedicated purpose

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 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 window.

       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.
