pad prefresh to any window instead of stdscr?

Is there a way I can have a pad refresh to any window instead of (presumably) stdscr? I suppose I could temporarily change stdscr every tim开发者_JAVA百科e I want to draw the pad, but that seems a little silly.

I just happened to have exactly same need for such function and I was more lucky: Try copywin function, it should do what you need. However - unlike prefresh - it doesn't do the refresh - you have to refresh the destination window yourself to display copied data.
