 .SH RETURN VALUE
 All routines return the integer \fBOK\fP.
-The SVr4.0 manual says "or a
-non-negative integer if \fBimmedok\fP is set", but this appears to be an error.

-X/Open does not define any error conditions.
+X/Open Curses does not specify any error conditions.
 This implementation returns an error
 if the window pointer is null.

-Functions with a \*(``mv\*('' prefix first perform a cursor movement using
-\fBwmove\fP, and return an error if the position is outside the window,
-or if the window pointer is null.

 .SH NOTES
 The borders generated by these functions are \fIinside\fP borders (this
 is also true of SVr4 curses, though the fact is not documented).

 Note that \fBborder\fP and \fBbox\fP may be macros.
 .SH PORTABILITY
-These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
