POS(numeric-expression)
 
    ■ (numeric-expression)    Can be any numeric expression. While it
                              passes no information, it is required to
                              maintain consistent BASIC function syntax.
 
    ■ If the screen cursor is in the leftmost column, this function
      returns a value of 1.
    ■ To return the current vertical (screen row) position of the
      cursor, use the CSRLIN function.
 
Returns
    The current horizontal screen position (column) of the text cursor.
