NAME
       wwrreessiizzee - resize a curses window

SYNOPSIS
       ##iinncclluuddee <>

       iinntt wwrreessiizzee((WWIINNDDOOWW **wwiinn,, iinntt lliinneess,, iinntt ccoolluummnnss));;

DESCRIPTION
       The  wwrreessiizzee  function  reallocates  storage  for  an nnccuurrsseess window to
       adjust its dimensions to the specified values.  If either dimension  is
       larger than the current values, the window's data is filled with blanks
       that have the current background rendition (as set by wwbbkkggnnddsseett) merged
       into them.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       The  function  returns  the integer EERRRR upon failure and OOKK on success.
       It will fail if either of the dimensions less than or equal to zero, or
       if an error occurs while (re)allocating memory for the window.

NNOOTTEESS
       The  only  restriction placed on the dimensions is that they be greater
       than zero.  The dimensions are not compared to ccuurrsseess screen dimensions
       to  simplify  the logic of rreessiizzeetteerrmm.  The caller must ensure that the
       window's dimensions fit within the actual screen dimensions.

       curses).
