curs_delch(3X)

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

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

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

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