curs_delch(3X) DG/UX R4.11MU05 curs_delch(3X)
NAME
cursdelch: delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch - delete character
under cursor in a curses window
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int delch(void);
int wdelch(WINDOW *win);
int mvdelch(int y, int x);
int mvwdelch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
DESCRIPTION
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.)
RETURN VALUE
All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an integer value
other than ERR upon successful completion.
NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header files
<stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.
Note that delch, mvdelch, and mvwdelch may be macros.
