#include <curses.h>
mvwin (WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
Arguments
- win
- A pointer to the window.
- y
- A window coordinate.
- x
- A window coordinate.
Description
When moving subwindows, the mvwin function does not rewrite
the contents of the subwindow on the underlying window at the new
position. If you write anything to the subwindow after the move, the
function also writes to the underlying window.
Return Values
| OK | Indicates success. |
| ERR | Indicates that moving the window put
part or all of the window off the edge of the terminal screen. The
terminal screen remains unaltered. |
