NAME
rle_skiprow - Skip output scanlines in an RLE file.
SYNOPSIS

rle_hdr * the_hdr;
int nrow;
DESCRIPTION
This routine is used to output blank (background) scanlines
to an RLE(5) file. It is used in conjunction with
rle_putrow(3) or rle_putraw(3). The number of scanlines
indicated by nrow will be blank in the output file.

librle(3), RLE(5).

BUGS
Rle_skiprow should not be called when creating an RLE file
with the_hdr->background set to zero. The specified number
of rows will indeed be skipped, but they will not be filled
with background when the file is read.
