Hi.

Well, i finally havenīt got to resize my xterm terminal with C library Curses, so i have had to do it with "resize command" such as:
Code:
sprintf (vx_sttorden, "resize -s %d %d >/dev/null", 
         p_nuRows, p_nuColumns);

ret = system (vx_sttorden);

Thanks for all.

The getwin() function returns one of the following values: OK The function completed successfully. ERR An error occurred in the function. The putwin() function returns NULL if an error is detected. SEE ALSO
curses_window(3), fread(3), fwrite(3) NOTES
Subwindows can not be created by the getwin() function, nor written by the putwin() function. STANDARDS
