NAME
     cursborder:  border, wborder, box, whline, wvline -  create
     curses borders, horizontal and vertical lines

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int border(chtype ls, chtype rs, chtype ts, chtype bs,
       chtype tl, chtype tr, chtype bl, chtype br);
     int wborder(WINDOW *win, chtype ls, chtype rs,
       chtype ts, chtype bs, chtype tl, chtype tr,
       chtype bl, chtype br);
     int box(WINDOW *win, chtype verch, chtype horch);
     int hline(chtype ch, int n);
     int whline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);
     int vline(chtype ch, int n);
     int wvline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);

DESCRIPTION
     With the border, wborder and box routines, a border is drawn
     around  the edges of the window.  The argument ls is a char-
     acter and attributes used for the left side of  the  border,
     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  following  default
     values  (defined in <curses.h>) are used instead: ACSVLINE,
     ACSVLINE, ACSHLINE, ACSHLINE, ACSULCORNER, ACSURCORNER,
     ACSBLCORNER,  ACSBRCORNER.   box(win,  verch,  horch) is a
     shorthand  for  the  following  call:   wborder(win,  verch,
     verch,  horch,  horch, 0, 0, 0, 0).  hline and whline draw a
     horizontal (left to right) line using  ch  starting  at  the
     current  cursor  position in the window.  The current cursor
     position is not changed.  The line is at most  n  characters
     long,  or  as many as fit into the window.  vline and wvline
     draw a vertical (top to bottom) line using  ch  starting  at
     the current cursor position in the window.  The current cur-
     sor position is not changed.  The line is at most n  charac-
     ters long, or as many as fit into the window.

RETURN VALUE
     All routines  return  the  integer  OK,  or  a  non-negative
     integer if immedok is set.

NOTES
     The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header
     files <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

     Note that border and box may be macros.
