+<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
+ The <STRONG>touchwin</STRONG> and <STRONG>touchline</STRONG> routines throw away all opti-
+ mization information about which parts of the window have
+ been touched, by pretending that the entire window has
+ been drawn on. This is sometimes necessary when using
+ overlapping windows, since a change to one window affects
+ the other window, but the records of which lines have been
+ changed in the other window do not reflect the change.
+ The routine <STRONG>touchline</STRONG> only pretends that <EM>count</EM> lines have
+ been changed, beginning with line <EM>start</EM>.
+
+ The <STRONG>untouchwin</STRONG> routine marks all lines in the window as
+ unchanged since the last call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>.
+
+ The <STRONG>wtouchln</STRONG> routine makes <EM>n</EM> lines in the window, starting
+ at line <EM>y</EM>, look as if they have (<EM>changed</EM><STRONG>=1</STRONG>) or have not
+ (<EM>changed</EM><STRONG>=0</STRONG>) been changed since the last call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>.
+
+ The <STRONG>is_linetouched</STRONG> and <STRONG>is_wintouched</STRONG> routines return <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG>
+ if the specified line/window was modified since the last
+ call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>; otherwise they return <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG>. In addi-
+ tion, <STRONG>is_linetouched</STRONG> returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> if <EM>line</EM> is not valid for
+ the given window.
+
+
+</PRE>
+<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
+ All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and an
+ integer value other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon successful completion,
+ unless otherwise noted in the preceding routine descrip-
+ tions.
+
+

+<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
+ The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these func-
+ tions.
+
+ Some historic curses implementations had, as an undocu-
+ mented feature, the ability to do the equivalent of
+ <STRONG>clearok(...,</STRONG> <STRONG>1)</STRONG> by saying <STRONG>touchwin(stdscr)</STRONG> or <STRONG>clear(std-</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>scr)</STRONG>. This will not work under ncurses.
