  65 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
  66        The <STRONG>getyx</STRONG> macro places the current cursor position of  the
  67        given window in the two integer variables <EM>y</EM> and <EM>x</EM>.
  68
  69        If  <EM>win</EM>  is  a  subwindow,  the  <STRONG>getparyx</STRONG> macro places the
  70        beginning coordinates of the  subwindow  relative  to  the
  71        parent  window into two integer variables <EM>y</EM> and <EM>x</EM>.  Other-
  72        wise, <STRONG>-1</STRONG> is placed into <EM>y</EM> and <EM>x</EM>.
  73
  74        Like <STRONG>getyx</STRONG>, the <STRONG>getbegyx</STRONG> and  <STRONG>getmaxyx</STRONG>  macros  store  the
  75        current  beginning  coordinates  and size of the specified
  76        window.
  77
  78
  79 </PRE>
  80 <H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
  81        The return values of these  macros  are  undefined  (i.e.,
  82        they  should not be used as the right-hand side of assign-
  83        ment statements).
  84
  85
  86 </PRE>
  87 <H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
  88        All of these interfaces are macros.  A "<STRONG>&amp;</STRONG>" is  not  neces-
  89        sary before the variables <EM>y</EM> and <EM>x</EM>.

  92 </PRE>
  93 <H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
  94        The  <STRONG>getyx</STRONG>,  <STRONG>getparyx</STRONG>, <STRONG>getbegyx</STRONG> and <STRONG>getmaxyx</STRONG> functions are
  95        described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
  96
  97        This  implementation  also  provides   <STRONG>getbegx</STRONG>,   <STRONG>getbegy</STRONG>,
  98        <STRONG>getcurx</STRONG>,  <STRONG>getcury</STRONG>,  <STRONG>getmaxx</STRONG>,  <STRONG>getmaxy</STRONG>, <STRONG>getparx</STRONG> and <STRONG>getpary</STRONG>
