NAME

-       wresize - resize a curses window
+       wresize - resize a curses window

SYNOPSIS

        #include <curses.h>
 
-       int wresize(WINDOW *win, int lines, int columns);
+       int wresize(WINDOW *win, int lines, int columns);

DESCRIPTION

-       This is an extension to the curses library.  It reallocates storage for
-       an ncurses 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 wbkgdset) merged into them.
+       This  ncurses  extension  to  standard curses reallocates storage for a
+       curses window to adjust its dimensions to  the  specified  values.   If
+       either dimension is larger than its current value, the expanded part of
+       the window  is  filled  with  blanks  merged  with  current  background
+       rendition (as set by wbkgdset(3x)).

RETURN VALUE

-       The  function  returns  the integer ERR upon failure and OK 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.

NOTES

        The  only  restriction placed on the dimensions is that they be greater
-       than zero.  The dimensions are not compared to curses screen dimensions
-       to  simplify  the logic of resizeterm.  The caller must ensure that the
-       window's dimensions fit within the actual screen dimensions.

PORTABILITY
