DESCRIPTION
The border_set and wborder_set functions draw a border
around the edges of the current or specified window. These SunOS 5.10 Last change: 1Miscellaneous Library Functions curs_border_set(3X)
functions do not change the cursor position, and do not wrap. Other than the window, each argument is a complex character with attributes:ls - left side,
rs - right side,
ts - top side,
bs - bottom side,
tl - top left-hand corner,
tr - top right-hand corner,
bl - bottom left-hand corner, and
br - bottom right-hand corner.
If any of these arguments is zero, then the corresponding default values (defined in curses.h) are used instead:WACS_VLINE,
WACS_VLINE,
WACS_HLINE,
WACS_HLINE,
WACS_ULCORNER,
WACS_URCORNER,
WACS_LLCORNER, and
WACS_LRCORNER.
box_set(win, verch, horch); is a shorthand for the following
call:wborder_set(win, verch, verch,
horch, horch, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);The *line_set functions use wch to draw a line starting at
the current cursor position in the window. The line is at most n characters long or as many as fit into the window. The current cursor position is not changed.The hline_set, mvhline_set, mvwhline_set, and whline_set
functions draw a line proceeding toward the last column of the same line.The vline_set, mvvline_set, mvwvline_set, and wvline_set
functions draw a line proceeding toward the last line of the window. NOTESNote that border_set, hline_set, mvhline_set, mvvline_set,
mvwhline_set, mvwvline_set, and vline_set may be macros.
