delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch - delete a character from a curses window

wdelch  deletes the character at the cursor position in win.  It moves all characters to the right of the
       cursor on the same line to the left one position and replaces the contents of the rightmost  position  on
       the  line  with  the  window's  background  character;  see  bkgd(3NCURSES)  (wide-character  API  users:
       bkgrnd(3NCURSES)).  The cursor position  does  not  change  (after  moving  to  (y,  x),  if  specified).
       ncurses(3NCURSES) describes the variants of this function.

       SVr2 (1984) introduced wdelch.

delch, wdelch, mvdelch, mvwdelch - delete a character from a curses window

delch, mvdelch, and mvwdelch may be implemented as macros.

       A terminal's delete_character (dch1) capability is not necessarily employed.

       X/Open Curses Issue 4 describes these functions.  It specifies no error conditions for them.

       SVr4 describes a successful return value only as “an integer value other than ERR”.

       These functions return OK on success and ERR on failure.

       In ncurses, they return ERR if win is NULL.

       Functions prefixed with “mv” first perform cursor movement and fail if the position (y, x) is outside the
       window boundaries.
