Curses Library Functions | curs_delch(3CURSES) |
| curs_delch, delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch - delete character under cursor in a curses window |
SYNOPSIS
|
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lcurses [ library ... ]
#include <curses.h> int delch(void); |
| int mvdelch(int y, int x); |
| int mvwdelch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x); |
|
With these routines the character under the cursor in the window is deleted; all characters to the right of the cursor on the same line are moved to the left one position and the last character on
the line is filled with a blank. The cursor position does not change (after moving to y, x, if specified). This does not imply use of the hardware delete character
feature.
|
|
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.
