NAME

copywin - copy a region of a window

 SYNOPSIS

#include <curses.h>

int copywin(const WINDOW *srcwin, WINDOW *dstwin, int sminrow,
            int smincol, int dminrow, int dmincol, int dmaxrow, 
            int dmaxcol, int overlay);

 DESCRIPTION

The copywin() function provides a finer granularity of control over the overlay() and overwrite() functions. As in the prefresh() function, a rectangle is specified in the destination window, (dminrow, dmincol) and (dmaxrow, dmaxcol), and the upper-left-corner coordinates of the source window, (sminrow, smincol). If overlay is TRUE, then copying is non-destructive, as in overlay(). If overlay is FALSE, then copying is destructive, as in overwrite().

 RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, copywin() returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.

 ERRORS

No errors are defined.
