form_cursor - position a form window cursor
SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
int pos_form_cursor(FORM *form);
DESCRIPTION
The function pos_form_cursor restores the cursor to the position required for the forms driver to continue processing requests. This is
useful after curses routines have been called to do screen-painting in response to a form operation.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns one of the following:
E_OK The routine succeeded.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR
System error occurred (see errno).
E_BAD_ARGUMENT
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
E_NOT_POSTED
The form has not been posted.
SEE ALSO curses(3X), form(3X).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.
PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.

E_BAD_ARGUMENT
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
E_BAD_STATE

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘
