int mvcur(int oldrow, int oldcol, int newrow, int newcol);

oldrow oldcol newrow newcol

The mvcur() function is a low-level function used only outside of X/Open Curses when the program has to deal directly with the terminfo database to handle certain terminal capabilities. The use of appropriate X/Open Curses functions is recommended in all other situations, so that X/Open Curses can track the cursor.

The mvcur() function moves the cursor from the location specified by oldrow and oldcol to the location specified by newrow and newcol. A program using this function must keep track of the current cursor position.

On success, the mvcur() function returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.

None.
