Description
       The routine sets the scrolling region for the default window.

       The routine sets the scrolling region for the named window.  Use these routines to set a software scrolling region in a window.

       For  both  routines,  the line numbers of the top and bottom margins of the scrolling region are contained in and Line 0 is the top line of
       the window.

       If this option and are enabled, an attempt to move off the bottom margin line will cause all lines in the scrolling region to scroll up one
       line.  Only the text of the window is scrolled.

NAME
curses_scroll, scrl, wscrl scroll, scrollok, setscrreg, wsetscrreg -- curses window scrolling routines LIBRARY
Curses Library (libcurses, -lcurses) SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h> int scrl(int n); int wscrl(WINDOW *win, int n); int scroll(WINDOW *win); int scrollok(WINDOW *win, boolf flag); int setscrreg(int top, int bottom); int wsetscrreg(WINDOW *win, int top, int bottom); DESCRIPTION
These functions scroll areas on stdscr or on the specified window. The scrl() function scrolls stdscr by n lines. If n is positive then then stdscr is scrolled up. n lines are lost from the top of stdscr and n blank lines are inserted at the bottom. If n is negative then stdscr is scrolled down. n blank lines are inserted at the top of stdscr and n lines are lost from the bottom. The wscrl() function is the same as the scrl() function, excepting that it scrolls the window specified by win. The scroll() function scrolls the window win up by one line. The scrolling behaviour of a window can be controlled by using the scrollok() function. If the flag argument is TRUE then a line wrap at the bottom of the window will cause the window to be scrolled up one line, if flag is FALSE then lines that would force a scroll will be trun- cated. The setscrreg() function sets up a software scrolling region on stdscr which will define a region of the screen that will be scrolled. The scrolling of this region is also controlled by the scrollok() function. The wsetscrreg() function does the same as the setscrreg() function, except that the scrolling region is set on the window specified by win. If a scrolling region has been set with the setscrreg() or wsetscrreg() functions and the current cursor position is inside the scrolling region, then only the area inside the scrolling region is scrolled. RETURN VALUES
Functions returning pointers will return NULL if an error is detected. The functions that return an int will return one of the following values: OK The function completed successfully. ERR An error occurred in the function. SEE ALSO
