       int border_set(
          const cchar_t *ls, const cchar_t *rs,
          const cchar_t *ts, const cchar_t *bs,

       int mvhline_set(
          int y, int x,
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);
       int mvwhline_set(
          WINDOW *win,
          int y, int x,
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);
       int vline_set(
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);
       int wvline_set(
          WINDOW *win,
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);
       int mvvline_set(
          int y, int x,
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);
       int mvwvline_set(

          int y, int x,
          const cchar_t *wch, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       The border_set and wborder_set functions draw a border around the edges
       of the current or specified window.  These functions do not change  the
       cursor position, and do not wrap.

       Other  than  the  window, each argument is a complex character with at-
       tributes:
              WACS_HLINE,
              WACS_ULCORNER,
              WACS_URCORNER,
              WACS_LLCORNER, and
              WACS_LRCORNER.

       box_set(win, verch, horch); is a shorthand for the following call:

       wborder_set(win, verch, verch,
           horch, horch, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);

       The  *line_set functions use wch to draw a line starting at the current
       cursor position in the window.  The line is at most n  characters  long
       or  as many as fit into the window.  The current cursor position is not
       changed.

       The hline_set, mvhline_set, mvwhline_set, and whline_set functions draw
       a line proceeding toward the last column of the same line.

       The vline_set, mvvline_set, mvwvline_set, and wvline_set functions draw
       a line proceeding toward the last line of the window.

NOTES

       Note  that  border_set,  hline_set,  mvhline_set,  mvvline_set,   mvwh-
       line_set, mvwvline_set, and vline_set may be macros.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.  Otherwise, they
       return ERR.

       Functions using a window parameter return an error if it is null.
