.SH DESCRIPTION
-The \fB\%getyx\fP macro places the current cursor position of the given window in
-the two integer variables \fIy\fP and \fIx\fP.
+The \fB\%getyx\fP macro places the current cursor position
+of the given window in the two integer variables \fIy\fP and \fIx\fP.
.PP
If \fIwin\fP is a subwindow, the \fB\%getparyx\fP macro places the beginning
coordinates of the subwindow relative to the parent window into two integer
they should not be used as the right-hand side of assignment statements).
.SH NOTES
All of these interfaces are macros.
-A "\fB&\fP" is not necessary before the variables \fIy\fP and \fIx\fP.
+A \*(``&\*('' is not necessary before the variables \fIy\fP and \fIx\fP.
.SH PORTABILITY
The
\fB\%getyx\fP,
\fB\%getparyx\fP,
\fB\%getbegyx\fP and
\fB\%getmaxyx\fP
-macros are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
+macros are described in X/Open Curses, Issue 4.
.PP
This implementation also provides functions
\fB\%getbegx\fP,
Besides the problem of opaque structures,
the data stored in like-named members may not have like-values in
different implementations.
-For example, the \fB\%WINDOW._maxx\fP and \fB\%WINDOW._maxy\fP values in \fIncurses\fP
-have (at least since release 1.8.1) differed by one from some
-other implementations.
+For example, the \fB\%WINDOW._maxx\fP and \fB\%WINDOW._maxy\fP values
+in \fI\%ncurses\fP have
+(at least since release 1.8.1)
+differed by one from some other implementations.
The difference is hidden by means of the macro \fB\%getmaxyx\fP.
