/*REXX program demonstrates cursor position and writing of text to same.*/
/*──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────*/ /*─────────────────────examples are for PC/REXX only.───────────────────*/ /*──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────*/
call cursor 3,6 /*move the cursor to row 3, col 6*/ say 'Hello' /*write the text at that location*/
call scrwrite 30,50,'Hello.' /*another method. */
