</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
       The <STRONG>touchwin</STRONG> and <STRONG>touchline</STRONG> routines throw away  all  opti-
       mization  information about which parts of the window have
       been touched, by pretending that  the  entire  window  has
       been  drawn  on.   This  is sometimes necessary when using
       overlapping windows, since a change to one window  affects
       the other window, but the records of which lines have been
       changed in the other window do  not  reflect  the  change.
       The  routine <STRONG>touchline</STRONG> only pretends that <EM>count</EM> lines have
       been changed, beginning with line <EM>start</EM>.

       The <STRONG>untouchwin</STRONG> routine marks all lines in  the  window  as
       unchanged since the last call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>.

       The <STRONG>wtouchln</STRONG> routine makes <EM>n</EM> lines in the window, starting
       at line <EM>y</EM>, look as if they have (<EM>changed</EM><STRONG>=1</STRONG>)  or  have  not
       (<EM>changed</EM><STRONG>=0</STRONG>)  been changed since the last call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>.

       The <STRONG>is_linetouched</STRONG> and <STRONG>is_wintouched</STRONG> routines return  <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG>
       if  the  specified line/window was modified since the last
       call to <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>; otherwise they return <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG>.   In  addi-
       tion,  <STRONG>is_linetouched</STRONG> returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> if <EM>line</EM> is not valid for
       the given window.


</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
       All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon  failure  and  an
       integer  value  other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon successful completion,
       unless otherwise noted in the preceding  routine  descrip-
       tions.


</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
       The  XSI  Curses  standard,  Issue 4 describes these func-
       tions.

       Some historic curses implementations had,  as  an  undocu-
       mented  feature,  the  ability  to  do  the  equivalent of
       <STRONG>clearok(...,</STRONG> <STRONG>1)</STRONG> by saying <STRONG>touchwin(stdscr)</STRONG>  or  <STRONG>clear(std-</STRONG>
       <STRONG>scr)</STRONG>.  This will not work under ncurses.


</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
       Note that all routines except <STRONG>wtouchln</STRONG> may be macros.
