NAME

       tickit_term_goto, tickit_term_move - move the terminal output cursor

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tickit.h>

       bool tickit_term_goto(TickitTerm *tt, int line, int col);
       void tickit_term_move(TickitTerm *tt, int downward, int rightward);

       Link with -ltickit.

DESCRIPTION

       tickit_term_goto()  moves  the  terminal  output  cursor  to  the  absolute  position  specified. On some
       terminals, either line or col may be specified as -1 to move within the line or column  it  is  currently
       in.  Not  all  terminals  may support the partial move ability; so the return value of tickit_term_goto()
       should be checked after attempting a goto within the line or column to see if it actually worked. If not,
       the application will have to reset the position using a fully-specified goto.

       tickit_term_move()  moves the terminal output cursor relative to its current position. Either downward or
       rightward may be specified as 0 to not move in that direction.

RETURN VALUE

       tickit_term_goto() returns a boolean value indicating whether  it  was  able  to  support  the  requested
       movement. tickit_term_move() returns no value.
