stdscr
or around the
specified window.
The border
() function draws a border
around stdscr
using the characters given as
arguments to the function. The ls,
rs, ts and
bs are the characters used to draw the left, right,
top and bottom sides, respectively. The tl,
tr, bl and
br are the characters used to draw the top-left,
top-right, bottom-left and bottom-right corners, respectively. If any of the
characters have a text portion that is 0 then a default alternate character
set character is used for that character. Note that even though the text
portion of the argument is 0, the argument can still be used to specify the
attributes for that portion of the border. The following table shows the
default characters for each argument:
ls | ACS_VLINE |
rs | ACS_VLINE |
ts | ACS_HLINE |
bs | ACS_HLINE |
tl | ACS_ULCORNER |
tr | ACS_URCORNER |
bl | ACS_LLCORNER |
br | ACS_LRCORNER |
wborder
() is the same as
border
() excepting that the border is drawn around
the specified window.
The box
() command draws a box around the
window given in win using the
vertical character for the vertical lines and the
horizontal character for the horizontal lines. The
corner characters of this box will be the defaults as described for
border
() above. Passing characters with text portion
that is 0 to box
() will result in the same defaults
as those for border
() as described above.
NULL
if an
error is detected. The functions that return an int will return one of the
following values:
OK
