 .SH DESCRIPTION
 These routines move the cursor associated with the window to line \fIy\fR and
 column \fIx\fR.  This routine does not move the physical cursor of the terminal
-until \fBrefresh\fR is called.  The position specified is relative to the upper
+until \fBrefresh\fR(3X) is called.  The position specified is relative to the upper
 left-hand corner of the window, which is (0,0).
 .SH RETURN VALUE
 These routines return \fBERR\fR upon failure and OK (SVr4
 specifies only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fR") upon successful
 completion.
+.PP
+Specifically, they return an error
+if the window pointer is null, or
+if the position is outside the window.
 .SH NOTES
 Note that \fBmove\fR may be a macro.
 .SH 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.
+These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
