curs_move(3)

NAME

       move, wmove - move curses window cursor

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int move(int y, int x);
       int wmove(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION

       These routines move the cursor associated with the window to line y and
       column x.  This routine does not move the physical cursor of the termi-
       nal until refresh is called.  The position specified is relative to the
       upper left-hand corner of the window, which is (0,0).

RETURN VALUE

       These routines return ERR upon failure and OK (SVr4 specifies only  "an
       integer value other than ERR") upon successful completion.

NOTES

       Note that move may be a macro.

PORTABILITY

       These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.  The
       standard specifies that if (y,x) is within  a  multi-column  character,
       the  cursor  is	moved  to the first column of that character; however,
       this implementation does not yet support the extended-level XSI	multi-
       byte characters.
