NAME

       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);

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(3NCURSES) 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 the integer ERR upon failure and an OK (SVr4 specifies only “an integer value other
       than ERR”) upon successful completion.

       Specifically,  they  return  an  error  if  the window pointer is null, or if the position is outside the
       window.

NOTES

       Note that move may be a macro.

PORTABILITY

       These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
