curs_getyx(3X) curs_getyx(3X) NAME getyx, getparyx, getbegyx, getmaxyx - get curses cursor and window co- ordinates 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); DESCRIPTION The getyx macro places the current cursor position of the given window in the two integer variables y and x. If win is a subwindow, the getparyx macro places the beginning coordi- nates of the subwindow relative to the parent window into two integer variables y and x. Otherwise, -1 is placed into y and x. Like getyx, the getbegyx and getmaxyx macros store the current begin- ning coordinates and size of the specified window. RETURN VALUE The return values of these macros are undefined (i.e., they should not be used as the right-hand side of assignment statements). NOTES All of these interfaces are macros and that "&" is not necessary before the variables y and x. PORTABILITY These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.
