+These routines move the cursor associated with the window to line \fIy\fP and
+column \fIx\fP.
+This routine does not move the physical cursor of the terminal
+until \fBrefresh\fP(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
+These routines return \fBERR\fP upon failure and \fBOK\fP (SVr4
+specifies only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fP") 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.
+Note that \fBmove\fP 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.
