        ry associated with it (it does not actually erase the win-
        dow's screen image).  Subwindows must  be  deleted  before

        Calling <STRONG>mvwin</STRONG> moves the window so that the upper left-hand
        corner is at position (<EM>x</EM>, <EM>y</EM>).  If the move would cause the
        window to be off the screen, it is an error and the window
        is not moved.  Moving subwindows is allowed, but should be
        avoided.

        Calling <STRONG>derwin</STRONG> is the same as calling <STRONG>subwin,</STRONG> except  that

        The  <STRONG>wsyncdown</STRONG>  routine  touches each location in <EM>win</EM> that
        has been touched in any of  its  ancestor  windows.   This
        routine  is  called by <STRONG>wrefresh</STRONG>, so it should almost never
