Take a look at tn5250_dbuffer_cursor_set()

To call it, you'll need a pointer to the Tn5250Display object.  This
object is passed to your routine in the terminal_update() routine.  I
suggest that you save the pointer in your own _Tn5250TerminalPrivate
structure, and then when you need it you can call the cursor set routine
with:

    tn5250_dbuffer_cursor_set(term->data->display->display_buffers,
                              row, column);
