Boththe character and attribute parts of the background are combined withthe blank characters.The background becomes a property of thecharacter and moves with the character through any scrolling andinsert/delete line/character operations.To the extent possible on aparticular terminal, the attribute part of the background is displayedas the graphic rendition of the character put on the screen.The \fBbkgrnd\fR and \fBwbkgrnd\fR functionsset the background property of the current or specified windowand then apply this setting to every character position in that window:.RSThe rendition of every character on the screen is changed tothe new background rendition.Wherever the former background characterappears, it is changed to the new background character..REThe \fBgetbkgrnd\fR function returns the given window's current backgroundcharacter/attribute pair via the \fBwch\fR pointer..SH NOTESNote that\fBbkgrnd\fR,\fBbkgrndset\fR, and\fBgetbkgrnd\fRmay be macros..SH RETURN VALUESThe \fBbkgrndset\fR and \fBwbkgrndset\fR routines do not return a value..PPUpon successful completion, the other functions return \fBOK\fR.Otherwise, they return \fBERR\fR.A null window pointer is treated as an error..SH SEE ALSO\fBcurses\fR(3X),\fBcurs_bkgd\fR(3X).\"#.\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS.\"# Local Variables:.\"# mode:nroff.\"# fill-column:79.\"# End:
