+This is an extension to the curses library.                                    
+It reallocates storage for an \fBncurses\fR

 If either dimension is larger than the current values, the
 window's data is filled with blanks that have the current background rendition

 The caller must ensure that the window's dimensions fit within the
 actual screen dimensions.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+.PP
+It is not possible to resize windows with SVr4 curses.
+.PP
+This extension of ncurses was introduced in mid-1995.
+It was adopted in NetBSD curses (2001) and PDCurses (2003).
