NAME

       menu_item_value, set_item_value, item_value - set and get menus item values

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lmenu -lcurses [ library... ]
       #include <menu.h>

       int set_item_value(ITEM *item, int bool);

       int item_value(ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION

       Unlike  single-valued  menus,  multi-valued  menus  enable  the end-user to select one or more items from a menu. set_item_value() sets the
       selected value of the item -- TRUE (selected) or FALSE (not selected). set_item_value() may be used only with multi-valued menus. To make a
       menu multi-valued, use set_menu_opts or menu_opts_off() to turn off the option O_ONEVALUE. (See menu_opts(3CURSES)).

       item_value() returns the select value of item, either TRUE (selected) or FALSE (unselected).

RETURN VALUES

       set_item_value() returns one of the following:

       E_OK		       The routine returned successfully.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR	       System error.

       E_REQUEST_DENIED        The menu driver could not process the request.

NAME

       menu_opts, set_menu_opts, menu_opts_on, menu_opts_off - menus option routines

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lmenu  -lcurses	[ library... ]
       #include <menu.h>

       OPTIONS menu_opts(MENU *menu);

       int set_menu_opts(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);

       int menu_opts_on(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);

       int menu_opts_off(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);

DESCRIPTION

   Menu Options
       set_menu_opts() turns on the named options for menu and turns off all other options. Options are boolean values that can be OR-ed together.

       menu_opts_on() turns on the named options for menu; no other option is changed.

       menu_opts_off() turns off the named options for menu; no other option is changed.

       menu_opts() returns the current options of menu.

       The following values can be OR'd together to create  opts.

       O_ONEVALUE      Only one item can be selected from the menu.

       O_SHOWDESC      Display the description of the items.

       O_ROWMAJOR      Display the menu in row major order.

       O_IGNORECASE    Ignore the case when pattern matching.

       O_SHOWMATCH     Place the cursor within the item name when pattern matching.

       O_NONCYCLIC     Make certain menu driver requests non-cyclic.

RETURN VALUES

       Except for menu_opts(), these routines return one of the following:

       E_OK		  The routine returned successfully.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR	 System error.

       E_POSTED 	 The menu is already posted.
