NAME

-       move, wmove - move curses window cursor
+       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);
+       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(3x) is called.  The position specified is relative to
-       the upper left-hand corner of the window, which is (0,0).
+       wmove  relocates  the  cursor  associated with the curses window win to
+       line y and column  x.   The  terminal's  cursor  does  not  move  until
+       refresh(3x)  is  called.   The position (y, x) is relative to the upper
+       left-hand  corner  of  the  window,  which  has   coordinates   (0, 0).
+       ncurses(3x) describes the move variant of this function.

RETURN VALUE

-       These routines return ERR upon failure and OK (SVr4 specifies only  "an
-       integer value other than ERR") upon successful completion.
+       These functions return OK on success and ERR on failure.
+
+       They fail if the position (y, x) is outside the window boundaries.
 
-       Specifically, they return an error if the window pointer is null, or if
-       the position is outside the window.
+       wmove fails if its WINDOW pointer argument is NULL.

NOTES

-       Note that move may be a macro.
+       move may be implemented as a macro.

PORTABILITY

-       These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
+       X/Open Curses, Issue 4 describes these functions.
