263 Functions permit manipulation of a window and the
268 the most basic are \fB\%move\fP(3X) and \fB\%addch\fP(3X):
269 these place the cursor and write a character to
279 functions to accumulate a set of desired updates that make sense to
281 call \fB\%refresh\fP(3X) to tell the library to make the user's screen
287 its output by computing a minimal number of operations to mutate the
292 \fB\%terminfo\fP(3X) API,
293 a feature of every standard

315 See \fB\%waddch\fP(3X).

471 A character code may not be representable as a
