       curs_deleteln(3curses)                        curs_deleteln(3curses)


       NAME
             curs_deleteln: deleteln, wdeleteln, insdelln, winsdelln,
             insertln, winsertln - delete and insert lines in a curses
             window

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [flag . . .] file -lcurses [library . . .]
             #include <curses.h>
             int deleteln(void);
             int wdeleteln(WINDOW *win);
             int insdelln(int n);
             int winsdelln(WINDOW *win, int n);
             int insertln(void);
             int winsertln(WINDOW *win);

       DESCRIPTION
             With the deleteln and wdeleteln routines, the line under the
             cursor in the window is deleted; all lines below the current
             line are moved up one line.  The bottom line of the window is
             cleared.  The cursor position does not change.  (This does not
             imply use of a hardware delete line feature.)

             With the insdelln and winsdelln routines, for positive n,
             insert n lines into the specified window above the current
             line.  The n bottom lines are lost.  For negative n, delete n
             lines (starting with the one under the cursor), and move the
             remaining lines up.  The bottom n lines are cleared.  The
             current cursor position remains the same.

             With the insertln and insertln routines, a blank line is
             inserted above the current line and the bottom line is lost.
             (This does not imply use of a hardware insert line feature.)

          Return Values
             All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an
             integer value other than ERR upon successful completion.
