NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     curs_delch:  delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch - delete character under
     cursor in a curses	window

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <curses.h>

     int delch(void);

     int wdelch(WINDOW *win);
     int mvdelch(int y,	int x);

     int mvwdelch(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     With these	routines the character under the cursor	in the window is
     deleted; all characters to	the right of the cursor	on the same line are
     moved to the left one position and	the last character on the line is
     filled with a blank.  The cursor position does not	change (after moving
     to	y, x, if specified).  (This does not imply use of the hardware delete
     character feature.)

RETURN VALUE    [Toc]    [Back]

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

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The header	file <curses.h>	automatically includes the header files
     <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.

     Note that delch, mvdelch, and mvwdelch may	be macros.
