- The <STRONG>wresize</STRONG> function reallocates storage for an <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG>
- window to adjust its dimensions to the specified values.
- If either dimension is larger than the current values, the
- window's data is filled with blanks that have the current
- background rendition (as set by <STRONG>wbkgndset</STRONG>) merged into
- them.

+ This is an extension to the curses library. It reallo-
+ cates storage for an <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> window to adjust its dimen-
+ sions to the specified values. If either dimension is
+ larger than the current values, the window's data is
+ filled with blanks that have the current background rendi-
+ tion (as set by <STRONG>wbkgdset</STRONG>) merged into them.

The function returns the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
on success. It will fail if either of the dimensions less
than or equal to zero, or if an error occurs while
(re)allocating memory for the window.

The only restriction placed on the dimensions is that they
be greater than zero. The dimensions are not compared to
<STRONG>curses</STRONG> screen dimensions to simplify the logic of
dimensions fit within the actual screen dimensions.

+ It is not possible to resize windows with SVr4 curses.

+ This extension of ncurses was introduced in mid-1995. It
+ was adopted in NetBSD curses (2001) and PDCurses (2003).
