  99        The <STRONG>border_set</STRONG> and <STRONG>wborder_set</STRONG> functions draw a border around the edges
 100        of the current or specified window.  These functions do not change  the
 101        cursor position, and do not wrap.
 102
 103        Other  than  the  window, each argument is a complex character with at-
 104        tributes:
 105               <EM>ls</EM> - left side,
 106               <EM>rs</EM> - right side,
 107               <EM>ts</EM> - top side,
 108               <EM>bs</EM> - bottom side,
 109               <EM>tl</EM> - top left-hand corner,
 110               <EM>tr</EM> - top right-hand corner,
 111               <EM>bl</EM> - bottom left-hand corner, and
 112               <EM>br</EM> - bottom right-hand corner.
 113
 114        If any of these arguments is zero, then the corresponding default  val-
 115        ues (defined in <STRONG>curses.h</STRONG>) are used instead:
 116               <STRONG>WACS_VLINE</STRONG>,
 117               <STRONG>WACS_VLINE</STRONG>,
 118               <STRONG>WACS_HLINE</STRONG>,
 119               <STRONG>WACS_HLINE</STRONG>,
 120               <STRONG>WACS_ULCORNER</STRONG>,
 121               <STRONG>WACS_URCORNER</STRONG>,
 122               <STRONG>WACS_LLCORNER</STRONG>, and
 123               <STRONG>WACS_LRCORNER</STRONG>.
 124
 125        <STRONG>box_set(</STRONG><EM>win</EM>, <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>);</STRONG> is a shorthand for the following call:
 126
 127        <STRONG>wborder_set(</STRONG><EM>win</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>verch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG>
 128            <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <EM>horch</EM><STRONG>,</STRONG> <STRONG>NULL,</STRONG> <STRONG>NULL,</STRONG> <STRONG>NULL,</STRONG> <STRONG>NULL);</STRONG>
 129
 130        The  <STRONG>*line_set</STRONG> functions use <EM>wch</EM> to draw a line starting at the current
 131        cursor position in the window.  The line is at most <EM>n</EM>  characters  long
 132        or  as many as fit into the window.  The current cursor position is not
 133        changed.
 134
 135        The <STRONG>hline_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvhline_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwhline_set</STRONG>, and <STRONG>whline_set</STRONG> functions draw
 136        a line proceeding toward the last column of the same line.
 137
 138        The <STRONG>vline_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvvline_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwvline_set</STRONG>, and <STRONG>wvline_set</STRONG> functions draw
 139        a line proceeding toward the last line of the window.

 144        <STRONG>line_set</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvwvline_set</STRONG>, and <STRONG>vline_set</STRONG> may be macros.

 146
 147 </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
 148        Upon successful completion, these functions return <STRONG>OK</STRONG>.  Otherwise, they
 149        return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>.
 150
 151        Functions using a window parameter return an error if it is null.
 152
 153        Functions with a "mv" prefix first  perform  a  cursor  movement  using
 154        <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if
 155        the window pointer is null.
