X/Open Curses Library Functions               hlineset(3XCURSES)



NAME
     hlineset,    mvhlineset,    mvvlineset,     mvwhlineset,
     mvwvlineset,  vlineset,  whlineset, wvlineset - use com-
     plex characters (and renditions) to draw lines

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L  /usr/xpg4/lib \
      -R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

     #include 

     int hlineset(const cchart *ch, int n);


     int mvhlineset(int y, int x, const cchart *wch, int n);


     int mvvlineset(int y, int x, const cchart *wch, int n);


     int mvwhlineset(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const cchart *wch, int n);


     int mvwvlineset(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, const cchart *wch, int n);


     int vlineset(const cchart *wch, int n);


     int whlineset(WINDOW *win, const cchart *wch, int n);


     int wvlineset(WINDOW *win, const cchart *wch, int n);


DESCRIPTION
     The hlineset(),  vlineset(),  whlineset(),   wvlineset()
     functions  draw  a line, in either the window stdscr  or win
     starting at the current cursor position. The line  is  drawn
     using  the  character  wch  and  is a maximum of n positions
     long, or as many as will fit into the window.  If wch  is  a
     null  pointer,  the default horizontal or vertical character
     is used.


     The    mvhlineset(),     mvvlineset(),     mvwhlineset(),
     mvwvlineset()  functions  are similar to the previous group
     of functions  but the line begins at cursor position  speci-
     fied by x and y.

X/Open Curses Library Functions               hlineset(3XCURSES)



     The functions with names ending with hlineset()  draw  hor-
     izontal lines proceeding towards the last column of the same
     line. The functions with names ending with vlineset()  draw
     vertical  lines  proceeding  towards  the last column of the
     same line.


     These functions do not change the position of the cursor.

PARAMETERS
     wch    Is the complex character used to draw the line.


     n      Is the maximum number of characters in the line.


     y      Is the y (row) coordinate for the start of the line.


     x      Is the x (column) coordinate for  the  start  of  the
            line.


     win    Is a pointer to a window.


RETURN VALUES
     On success,  these  functions  return  OK.  Otherwise,  they
     return ER.

ERORS
     None.
