| 54 | .SH DESCRIPTION | 
|---|
| 55 | The \fBbkgrndset\fR and \fBwbkgrndset\fR routines manipulate the | 
|---|
| 56 | background of the named window. | 
|---|
| 57 | The window background is a \fBcchar_t\fR consisting of | 
|---|
| 58 | any combination of attributes (i.e., rendition) and a complex character. | 
|---|
| 59 | The attribute part of the background is combined (OR'ed) with all non-blank | 
|---|
| 60 | characters that are written into the window with \fBwaddch\fR.  Both | 
|---|
| 61 | the character and attribute parts of the background are combined with | 
|---|
| 62 | the blank characters. | 
|---|
| 63 | The background becomes a property of the | 
|---|
| 64 | character and moves with the character through any scrolling and | 
|---|
| 65 | insert/delete line/character operations. | 
|---|
| 66 |  | 
|---|
| 67 | To the extent possible on a | 
|---|
| 68 | particular terminal, the attribute part of the background is displayed | 
|---|
| 69 | as the graphic rendition of the character put on the screen. | 
|---|
| 70 |  | 
|---|
| 71 | The \fBbkgrnd\fR and \fBwbkgrnd\fR functions | 
|---|
| 72 | set the background property of the current or specified window | 
|---|
| 73 | and then apply this setting to every character position in that window: | 
|---|
| 74 |  | 
|---|
| 75 | .RS | 
|---|
| 76 | The rendition of every character on the screen is changed to | 
|---|
| 77 | the new background rendition. | 
|---|
| 78 |  | 
|---|
| 79 | Wherever the former background character | 
|---|
| 80 | appears, it is changed to the new background character. | 
|---|
| 81 | .RE | 
|---|
| 82 |  | 
|---|
| 83 | The \fBgetbkgrnd\fR function returns the given window's current background | 
|---|
| 84 | character/attribute pair via the \fBwch\fR pointer. | 
|---|
| 85 |  | 
|---|
| 86 | .SH NOTES | 
|---|
| 87 | Note that | 
|---|
| 88 | \fBbkgrnd\fR, | 
|---|
| 89 | \fBbkgrndset\fR, and | 
|---|
| 90 | \fBgetbkgrnd\fR | 
|---|
| 91 | may be macros. | 
|---|
| 92 | .SH RETURN VALUES | 
|---|
| 93 | The \fBbkgrndset\fR and \fBwbkgrndset\fR routines do not return a value. | 
|---|
| 94 | .PP | 
|---|
| 95 | Upon successful completion, the other functions return \fBOK\fR. | 
|---|
| 96 | Otherwise, they return \fBERR\fR. | 
|---|
| 97 | A null window pointer is treated as an error. |
