#include <curses.h>

int x );
Curses Library (libcurses)
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to
industry standards as follows:
delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch: XCURSES4.2
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information
about industry standards and associated tags.
These routines do the following: Delete the character
under the cursor in the current or specified window Move
all characters that are to the right of the cursor and on
the same line to the left one position Fill the last character
on the line with a blank.
These routines do not change the cursor position (after
moving to y, x, if specified). This does not imply use of
the hardware delete-character feature.
The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the
header file <stdio.h>.
Note that delch, mvdelch, and mvwdelch may be macros.
All routines return ERR upon failure and OK upon successful
completion.
