SCREEN SET_CURSOR_REL moves the cursor a specified number of rows and columns, relative to the current cursor position. Positive integers move the cursor to the right for column position and down for row position. Negative integers move the cursor to the left for column position and up for row position. Zero indicates the same row or column position as the current cursor position.

If the delta column integer value is negative, the cursor moves the specified number of columns to the left. |
