curs_move(3x)                    Library calls                   curs_move(3x)




NAME

       move, wmove - move cursor in a curses window


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
       terminal  until  refresh(3x)  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.

       Specifically, they return an error if the window pointer is null, or if
       the position is outside the window.


NOTES

       Note that move may be a macro.


PORTABILITY

       These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
