nget-position

Arguments: window-or-screen old-position &optional scroll-p cursor

A destructive version of get-position. The old-position argument is modified to be the position chosen by the user and then returned. Like get-position, this function waits for the user to press a mouse button after moving the mouse about. The position where the mouse button is pressed is the position selected by the user. old-position is set to that and returned.

If scroll-p is true, the window identified by window-or-screen will be scrolled if the cursor moves outside it. Sets the stream cursor to cursor while running. If the cursor argument is t, a stream default is used (typically the cross-hair cursor).

window-or-screen should be a window or the screen. The screen is the value returned by (screen *system*). See screen and *system*.
