NAME
       curs_getyx, getyx, getparyx, getbegyx, getmaxyx - Get Curses cursor and
       window coordinates

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 );

LIBRARY
       Curses Library (libcurses)

STANDARDS
       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry	 stan‐
       dards as follows:

       getparyx, getbegyx, getmaxyx, getyx:  XCURSES4.2

       Refer  to  the  standards(5)  reference page for more information about
       industry standards and associated tags.

DESCRIPTION
       The getyx macro places the cursor position of the window into  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  the  two
       integer variables y and x. Otherwise; the macro places -1 into y and x.

       Like  getyx,  the getbegyx and getmaxyx macros store the current begin‐
       ning coordinates and size of the specified window.

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

       All  of	these  interfaces  are macros, and applications do not have to
       specify & before the variables y and x.

RETURN VALUES
       The return values of these macros are undefined (that is,  they	should
       not be used as the right-hand side of an assignment statements).
