curs_getyx(3) Library Functions Manual curs_getyx(3)NAME
curs_getyx, 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 );
LIBRARY
Curses Library (libcurses)
STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
getparyx, getbegyx, getmaxyx, getyx: XCURSES4.2
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
DESCRIPTION
The getyx macro places the cursor position of the window into the two integer variables y and x.
If win is a subwindow, the getparyx macro places the beginning coordinates of the subwindow (relative to the parent window) into the two
integer variables y and x. Otherwise; the macro places -1 into y and x.
Like getyx, the getbegyx and getmaxyx macros store the current beginning coordinates and size of the specified window.
NOTES
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header file <stdio.h>.
All of these interfaces are macros, and applications do not have to specify & before the variables y and x.
RETURN VALUES
The return values of these macros are undefined (that is, they should not be used as the right-hand side of an assignment statements).

Hi All,
I have written the below code to know the current curser position. The problem with this code is - it gives me window size properly but whn it comes to current curser position then it gives (0,0) as x,y co-ordinate eventhough my curser is somewhere middle on command line interface.
