C_SHADOW()
DESCRIPTION
C_SHADOW() draws a shadow around an object that is already
displayed on the screen. There are four types of shadows that can
be drawn which determine where the shadow appears around the
object. The color and the characters used to draw the shadow may
be specified to create many different styles.
SYNTAX
C_SHADOW(st_row, st_col, end_row, end_col [,type] [,color] [,hchar] [,vchar])
PARAMETERS
st_row (N), st_col (N), end_row (N), and end_col (N) define the
upper left and lower right coordinates of the object on the screen
to draw the shadow around.
type (N) is the type indicator which determines the position of the
shadow around the object. If type is not specified, one (1) is
used. The shadow types are as follows:
