WACS_VLINE 0x2502 | x vertical line
The wide-character configuration of ncurses also defines symbols for
- double-lines:
+ thick lines (<STRONG>acsc</STRONG> "J" to "V"):
+
+ <STRONG>ACS</STRONG> <STRONG>Unicode</STRONG> <STRONG>ASCII</STRONG> <STRONG>acsc</STRONG> <STRONG>Glyph</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>Name</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>char</STRONG> <STRONG>Name</STRONG>
+ -----------------------------------------------------------------------
+ WACS_T_BTEE 0x253b + V thick tee pointing up
+ WACS_T_HLINE 0x2501 - Q thick horizontal line
+ WACS_T_LLCORNER 0x2517 + M thick lower left corner
+ WACS_T_LRCORNER 0x251b + J thick lower right corner
+ WACS_T_LTEE 0x252b + T thick tee pointing right
+ WACS_T_PLUS 0x254b + N thick large plus
+ WACS_T_RTEE 0x2523 + U thick tee pointing left
+ WACS_T_TTEE 0x2533 + W thick tee pointing down
+ WACS_T_ULCORNER 0x250f + L thick upper left corner
+ WACS_T_URCORNER 0x2513 + K thick upper right corner
+ WACS_T_VLINE 0x2503 | X thick vertical line
+
+ and for double-lines (<STRONG>acsc</STRONG> "A" to "I"):
<STRONG>ACS</STRONG> <STRONG>Unicode</STRONG> <STRONG>ASCII</STRONG> <STRONG>acsc</STRONG> <STRONG>Glyph</STRONG>
<STRONG>Name</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>char</STRONG> <STRONG>Name</STRONG>
WACS_D_URCORNER 0x2557 + B double upper right corner
WACS_D_VLINE 0x2551 | Y double vertical line
- and for thick lines:
+ Unicode's descriptions for these characters differs slightly from
+ ncurses, by introducing the term "light" (along with less important
+ details). Here are its descriptions for the normal, thick, and double
+ horizontal lines:
- <STRONG>ACS</STRONG> <STRONG>Unicode</STRONG> <STRONG>ASCII</STRONG> <STRONG>acsc</STRONG> <STRONG>Glyph</STRONG>
- <STRONG>Name</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>Default</STRONG> <STRONG>char</STRONG> <STRONG>Name</STRONG>

All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG> on success.
+ X/Open does not define any error conditions. This implementation
+ returns an error
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> if the window pointer is null or
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> if it is not possible to add a complete character in the window.
+
+ The latter may be due to different causes:
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If <STRONG>scrollok</STRONG> is not enabled, writing a character at the lower right
+ margin succeeds. However, an error is returned because it is not
+ possible to wrap to a new line
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> If an error is detected when converting a multibyte character to a
+ sequence of bytes, or if it is not possible to add all of the
+ resulting bytes in the window, an error is returned.
+
Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using
<STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if
the window pointer is null.
