<B>LOCATE Position the Cursor</B>
<B>LOCATE</B> [<U>row</U>][,[<U>col</U>][,[<U>cursor</U>][,[<U>start</U>][,<U>stop</U>]]]]
Sets the size and position of the cursor.
<U>row</U> A numeric expression in the range 1 to 25. Sets the row
position of the cursor.
<U>col</U> A numeric expression in the range 1 to 40 or 1 to 80. Sets
the column position of the cursor.
<U>cursor</U> A numeric expression. If 1, the cursor is visible; if 0,
the cursor is invisible.
<U>start</U> A numeric expression in the range 0 to 31. Sets the
starting scan line for the cursor.
<U>stop</U> A numeric expression in the range 0 to 31. Sets the ending
scan line for the cursor. If <U>start</U> is specified and <U>stop</U>
is not, <U>stop</U> assumes the value of <U>start</U>.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<B>Notes:</B> Cursor scan lines are numbered from 0 (top) to 7 (CGA) or
13 (MDA).
If <U>stop</U> is less than <U>start</U>, a two-part (wraparound) cursor
results.
If the softkey display on line 25 has been turned off (via
KEY OFF), you may write to line 25 by means of LOCATE.
Line 25 does not scroll in any case.
Any argument to LOCATE may be omitted. Omitted arguments
retain former values.
