     nColor -- box color, default current color

     cFill_char -- if not passed, the box will be cleared with spaces. If a
                   char, the box will be filled with it. If a null string,
                   the box will not be filled or cleared.

None.

Example

     SHADOWBOX( 10, 20, 15, 60, "A spiffy box !" )

Side Effects

Impossible box sizes are overruled. Given the ubiquity of STAT_LINE(), the
coordinates of the largest possible box are 0,0 to 22,78 (a row and a
column each for the shadow).
