SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     # include <curses.h>

     int erase(void);

     int werase(WINDOW *win);
     int clear(void);

     int wclear(WINDOW *win);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The erase and werase routines copy	blanks to every	position in the
     window.

     The clear and wclear routines are like erase and werase, but they also
     call clearok, so that the screen is cleared completely on the next	call
     to	wrefresh for that window and repainted from scratch.

     The clrtobot and wclrtobot	routines erase all lines below the cursor in
     the window.  Also,	the current line to the	right of the cursor,
     inclusive,	is erased.

     The clrtoeol and wclrtoeol	routines erase the current line	to the right
     of	the cursor, inclusive.

RETURN VALUE    [Toc]    [Back]

     All routines return the integer OK, or a non-negative integer if immedok
     is	set.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The header	file <curses.h>	automatically includes the header files
     <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

     Note that erase, werase, clear, wclear, clrtobot, and clrtoeol may	be
     macros.
