[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Console I/O and RKMs

griffin@frith.msu.edu (Danny Griffin) (08/15/90)

On pg. 641 of 1.3 RKM:Libraries and Devices it says that the ConUnit structure
cu_XCP and cu_YCP are the current line and column position of the cursor.

On pg. D-3 of 1.3 RKM:Includes and Autodocs it says that cu_XCP and cu_YCP are
character positions, and cu_XCCP and cu_YCCP are the cursor positions.

Could someone please explain the difference between cu_XCP and cu_XCCP?

As I understand it, cu_XCP varies from 1 to 80 and cu_YCP from 1 to 25,
while cu_XCCP varies from 0 to 639 and cu_YCCP from 0 to 199.
