ncurses has box:
int box(WINDOW *win, chtype verch, chtype horch);
documentation can be found by doing:
man curs_border
You can check out several of my curse programs at
http://www.bit.net.au./~bhepple/dcalc (a curses based RPN calculator)
and http://www.bit.net.au./~bhepple/scrmgr (a curses based data entry
system). The calculator would probably be easier to inspect as it has
far fewer lines of code.
Cheers
Bob
