int move(int y, int x);

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

With these routines, the cursor associated with the window is moved to line y and column x. This routine does not move the physical cursor of the terminal until refresh() is called. The position specified is relative to the upper left-hand corner of the window, which is (0,0).

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