 .SH RETURN VALUE
 The function returns the integer \fBERR\fR upon failure and \fBOK\fR on success.
 It will fail if either of the dimensions less than or equal to zero,

 The caller must ensure that the window's dimensions fit within the

+.SH PORTABILITY
+.PP
+It is not possible to resize windows with SVr4 curses.

+This extension of ncurses was introduced in mid-1995.
+It was adopted in NetBSD curses (2001) and PDCurses (2003).
