<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
<STRONG>move</STRONG>, <STRONG>wmove</STRONG> - move <STRONG>curses</STRONG> window cursor
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
<STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;curses.h&gt;</STRONG>
<STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>move(int</STRONG> <STRONG>y,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>x);</STRONG>
<STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>wmove(WINDOW</STRONG> <STRONG>*win,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>y,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>x);</STRONG>
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
These routines move the cursor associated with the window
to line <EM>y</EM> and column <EM>x</EM>. This routine does not move the
physical cursor of the terminal until <STRONG>refresh</STRONG> is called.
The position specified is relative to the upper left-hand
corner of the window, which is (0,0).
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
These routines return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and OK (SVr4 speci-
fies only "an integer value other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>") upon success-
ful completion.
Specifically, they return an error if the window pointer
is null, or if the position is outside the window.
</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
Note that <STRONG>move</STRONG> may be a macro.
</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard,
Issue 4.
