       wresize - resize a curses window
       #include <curses.h>
       int wresize(WINDOW *win, int lines, int columns);
       This  ncurses  extension  to  standard curses reallocates storage for a
       curses window to adjust its dimensions to  the  specified  values.   If
       either dimension is larger than its current value, the expanded part of
       the window  is  filled  with  blanks  merged  with  current  background
       rendition (as set by wbkgdset(3x)).
       wresize  returns  ERR  upon failure and OK on success.  It will fail if
       either of the dimensions is less than or equal to zero, or if an  error
       occurs while (re)allocating memory for the window.
       The  only  restriction placed on the dimensions is that they be greater
       than zero.  They are not compared to the curses screen dimensions; this
       keeps  the logic of resizeterm(3x) simple.  The caller must ensure that
       the window's dimensions fit within the actual screen dimensions.
       It is not possible to resize windows with SVr4 curses.
       ncurses introduced this extension in mid-1995.  NetBSD  curses  adopted
       it in 2001, and PDCurses in 2003.

       curses).
