|---|
| 33 | \fBwdelch\fR,
|
|---|
| 34 | \fBmvdelch\fR,
|
|---|
| 35 | \fBmvwdelch\fR - delete character under the cursor in a \fBcurses\fR window
|
|---|
| 36 | .SH SYNOPSIS
|
|---|
| 37 | \fB#include <curses.h>\fR
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | \fBint delch(void);\fR
|

|

|
|---|
| 47 | .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|---|
| 48 | These routines delete the character under the cursor; all characters to the
|
|---|
| 49 | right of the cursor on the same line are moved to the left one position and the
|
|---|
| 50 | last character on the line is filled with a blank. The cursor position does
|
|---|
| 51 | not change (after moving to \fIy\fR, \fIx\fR, if specified). (This does not
|
|---|
| 52 | imply use of the hardware delete character feature.)
|
|---|
| 53 | .SH RETURN VALUE
|
|---|
| 54 | All routines return the integer \fBERR\fR upon failure and an \fBOK\fR (SVr4
|
|---|
| 55 | specifies only "an integer value other than \fBERR\fR") upon successful
|
|---|
| 56 | completion.
|
|---|
| 57 | .SH NOTES
|
|---|
| 58 | Note that \fBdelch\fR, \fBmvdelch\fR, and \fBmvwdelch\fR may be macros.
|
|---|
| 59 | .SH PORTABILITY
|
|---|
| 60 | These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. The
|
|---|
| 61 | standard specifies that they return \fBERR\fR on failure, but specifies no
|
|---|
| 62 | error conditions.
