curs_move(3X)			 Library calls			 curs_move(3X)

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
       wmove  relocates	 the  cursor  associated with the curses window	win to
       line y and column  x.   The  terminal's	cursor	does  not  move	 until
       refresh(3X)  is	called.	  The position (y, x) is relative to the upper
       left-hand  corner  of  the  window,  which  has	 coordinates   (0, 0).
       ncurses(3X) describes the move variant of this function.

RETURN VALUE
       These functions return OK on success and	ERR on failure.

       They fail if the	position (y, x)	is outside the window boundaries.

       wmove fails if its WINDOW pointer argument is NULL.

NOTES
       move may	be implemented as a macro.

PORTABILITY
       X/Open Curses, Issue 4 describes	these functions.
