# DESCRIPTION

**ncplane_format** sets the attributes of every cell in the region having its
upper-left corner at the cursor's current position, and its lower-right corner
at **ystop**, **xstop**.

Box- and line-drawing is unaffected by a plane's scrolling status.

# RETURN VALUES

**ncplane_format** returns -1 if either **ystop** or **xstop** is less than the
current equivalent position, otherwise 0.
