50 <H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
51 <STRONG>wresize</STRONG> - resize a curses window
54 </PRE>
55 <H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
56 <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;curses.h&gt;</STRONG>
58 <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>wresize(WINDOW</STRONG> <STRONG>*win,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>lines,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>columns);</STRONG>
61 </PRE>
62 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
63 This is an extension to the curses library. It reallo-
64 cates storage for an <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> window to adjust its dimen-
65 sions to the specified values. If either dimension is
66 larger than the current values, the window's data is
67 filled with blanks that have the current background rendi-
68 tion (as set by <STRONG>wbkgdset</STRONG>) merged into them.
71 </PRE>
72 <H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
73 The function returns the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and <STRONG>OK</STRONG>
74 on success. It will fail if either of the dimensions less
75 than or equal to zero, or if an error occurs while
76 (re)allocating memory for the window.
79 </PRE>
80 <H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
81 The only restriction placed on the dimensions is that they
82 be greater than zero. The dimensions are not compared to
83 <STRONG>curses</STRONG> screen dimensions to simplify the logic of
84 <STRONG>resizeterm</STRONG>. The caller must ensure that the window's
85 dimensions fit within the actual screen dimensions.
