Cursor

Returns a cursor position object indicating where a cursor should be placed if an application wants to offer the user a way to move the cursor straight to the error location.

try {
  // ...
} catch(err) {
  if(err instanceof EnoError) {
    err.cursor.index;   // returns a one-dimensional string-index, e.g. 56
    
    err.cursor.line;    // returns the line, e.g. 3
    err.cursor.column;  // returns the column, e.g. 14
  }
}
