The <STRONG>border</STRONG>, <STRONG>wborder</STRONG> and <STRONG>box</STRONG> routines draw a box around the
edges of a window. Other than the window, each argument
is a character with attributes:
+
<EM>ls</EM> - left side,
<EM>rs</EM> - right side,
<EM>ts</EM> - top side,
<EM>tr</EM> - top right-hand corner,
<EM>bl</EM> - bottom left-hand corner, and
<EM>br</EM> - bottom right-hand corner.
+
If any of these arguments is zero, then the corresponding
default values (defined in <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG>) are used instead:
+
<STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>,
<STRONG>ACS_VLINE</STRONG>,
<STRONG>ACS_HLINE</STRONG>,
says "or a non-negative integer if <STRONG>immedok</STRONG> is set", but
this appears to be an error.
+ X/Open does not define any error conditions. This imple-
+ mentation returns an error if the window pointer is null.
+
+ Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
+ ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is
+ outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
