curs_getyx(3X)                   DG/UX 5.4.2                  curs_getyx(3X)


NAME
       cursgetyx:  getyx, getparyx, getbegyx, getmaxyx - get curses cursor
       and window coordinates

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       void getyx(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
       void getparyx(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
       void getbegyx(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
       void getmaxyx(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION
       With the getyx macro, the cursor position of the window is placed in
       the two integer variables y and x.

       With the getparyx macro, if win is a subwindow, the beginning
       coordinates of the subwindow relative to the parent window are placed
       into two integer variables, y and x.  Otherwise, -1 is placed into y
       and x.

       Like getyx, the getbegyx and getmaxyx macros store the current
       beginning coordinates and size of the specified window.

RETURN VALUE
       The return values of these macros are undefined (i.e., they should
       not be used as the right-hand side of assignment statements).

NOTES
       The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files
       <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

       Note that all of these interfaces are macros and that "&" is not
       necessary before the variables y and x.
