-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
-       The  <STRONG>overlay</STRONG>  and <STRONG>overwrite</STRONG> routines overlay <EM>srcwin</EM> on top
-       of <EM>dstwin</EM>.  <EM>scrwin</EM> and <EM>dstwin</EM> are not required to  be  the
-       same  size;  only  text  where  the two windows overlap is
-       copied.  The difference is that <STRONG>overlay</STRONG> is non-destructive
-       (blanks  are not copied) whereas <STRONG>overwrite</STRONG> is destructive.
-
-       The <STRONG>copywin</STRONG> routine provides a finer granularity  of  con-
-       trol over the <STRONG>overlay</STRONG> and <STRONG>overwrite</STRONG> routines.  Like in the
-       <STRONG>prefresh</STRONG> routine, a rectangle is specified in the destina-
-       tion  window,  (<EM>dminrow</EM>,  <EM>dmincol</EM>) and (<EM>dmaxrow</EM>, <EM>dmaxcol</EM>),
-       and the upper-left-corner coordinates of the  source  win-
-       dow, (<EM>sminrow</EM>, <EM>smincol</EM>).  If the argument <EM>overlay</EM> is <STRONG>true</STRONG>,
-       then copying is non-destructive, as in <STRONG>overlay</STRONG>.

-       The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions

+       The <STRONG>copywin</STRONG> routine provides a finer granularity of  control  over  the
+       <STRONG>overlay</STRONG>  and <STRONG>overwrite</STRONG> routines.  As in the <STRONG>prefresh</STRONG> routine, a rectan-
+       gle is specified in the  destination  window,  (<EM>dminrow</EM>,  <EM>dmincol</EM>)  and
+       (<EM>dmaxrow</EM>, <EM>dmaxcol</EM>), and the upper-left-corner coordinates of the source
