</PRE>
<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
       <STRONG>move</STRONG>, <STRONG>wmove</STRONG> - move <STRONG>curses</STRONG> window cursor


</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
       <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;curses.h&gt;</STRONG>

       <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>move(int</STRONG> <STRONG>y,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>x);</STRONG>
       <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>wmove(WINDOW</STRONG> <STRONG>*win,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>y,</STRONG> <STRONG>int</STRONG> <STRONG>x);</STRONG>


</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
       These  routines move the cursor associated with the window
       to line <EM>y</EM> and column <EM>x</EM>.  This routine does  not  move  the
       physical  cursor  of the terminal until <STRONG>refresh</STRONG> is called.
       The position specified is relative to the upper  left-hand
       corner of the window, which is (0,0).


</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
       These routines return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and OK (SVr4 speci-
       fies only "an integer value other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>") upon success-
       ful completion.

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


</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
       Note that <STRONG>move</STRONG> may be a macro.


</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
       These functions are described in the XSI Curses  standard,
       Issue 4.
