Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

  Arguments
 
    xy      Specifies x and y coordinates of cursor's location
 
    wxy     Specifies window coordinates for cursor's location
 
  Description
 
    The _GetCurrentPosition procedure stores the position as an
    _XYCoord record. _GetCurrentPosition_wxy stores the position as a
    _WXYCoord record.
 
    When you enter graphics mode, the current position is initialized
    to the center of the viewport. The _LineTo function and the
    _MoveTo and _OutGText procedures can change the current position.
 
    Only graphics output and font-based text output (see _OutGText)
    start at the current position. Normal text output begins at the
    current text position (see _SetTextPosition).
