NAME
       mvcur - move the cursor

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include  -L	/usr/xpg4/lib 
	-R  /usr/xpg4/lib  -lcurses  [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int mvcur(int oldrow, int oldcol, int newrow, int newcol);

PARAMETERS
       oldrow	 Is the row from which cursor is to be moved.

       oldcol	 Is the column from which cursor is to be moved.

       newrow	 Is the row to which cursor is to be moved.

       newcol	 Is the column to which cursor is to be moved.

DESCRIPTION
       The  mvcur()  function  is a low-level function used only outside of  X/Open Curses when the program has to deal directly with the terminfo
       database to handle certain terminal capabilities.  The use of appropriate X/Open Curses functions is recommended in all other   situations,
       so that X/Open Curses can track the cursor.

       The  mvcur() function moves the cursor from the location specified by oldrow and oldcol to the location specified by newrow and	newcol.  A
       program using this function must keep track of the current cursor position.

RETURN VALUES
       On success, the mvcur() function returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.

ERRORS
       None.
