| These routines delete the character under the cursor; 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 <EM>y</EM>, <EM>x</EM>, if speci- |
| fied). (This does not imply use of the hardware delete character fea- |
| ture.) |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE> |
| All routines return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon failure and an <STRONG>OK</STRONG> (SVr4 speci- |
| fies only "an integer value other than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>") upon successful comple- |
| tion. |
| |
| Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor movement using |
| <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is outside the window, or if |
| the window pointer is null. |

| These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. The |
| standard specifies that they return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> on failure, but specifies no |
| error conditions. |
