# curs_move 3x

## NAME

           move, wmove - move curses window cursor

## SYNOPSIS

           #include <curses.h>

           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 terminal until refresh is called.
           The position specified is relative to the upper  left-hand
           corner of the window, which is (0,0).

## RETURN VALUE

           These routines return ERR upon failure and OK (SVr4 speci-
           fies only "an integer value other than ERR") upon success-
           ful completion.

## NOTES

           Note that move may be a macro.

## 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 multibyte
           characters.
