NAME
       curs_border:  border, wborder, box, hline, whline, vline, 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 character 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:
       ACS_VLINE, ACS_VLINE, ACS_HLINE, ACS_HLINE, ACS_ULCORNER,
       ACS_URCORNER, ACS_BLCORNER, ACS_BRCORNER.

       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
       cursor position is not changed.  The line is at most n characters
       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.
