window defines a text window onscreen. If the coordinates are in any way invalid, the call to window is ignored.

The minimum	size of the text window is one column by one line.

The default window is full screen, with these coordinates:

80-column mode: 1,1,80,25 40-column mode: 1,1,40,25

Return value

None.
