NAME menu - curses extension for programming menus SYNOPSIS #include <menu.h> DESCRIPTION The menu library provides terminal-independent facilities for composing menu systems on character-cell terminals. The library includes: item routines, which create and modify menu items; and menu routines, which group items into menus, display menus on the screen, and handle interaction with the user. The menu library uses the curses libraries, and a curses initialization routine such as initscr must be called before using any of these functions. To use the menu library, link with the options -lmenu -lcurses. Current Default Values for Item Attributes The menu library maintains a default value for item attri- butes. You can get or set this default by calling the appropriate get_ or set_ routine with a NULL item pointer. Changing this default with a set_ function affects future item creations, but does not change the rendering of items already created.

Rou- tines that return an integer return one of the following error codes: E_OK The routine succeeded. E_SYSTEM_ERROR System error occurred (see errno). E_BAD_ARGUMENT Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. E_POSTED The menu is already posted. E_BAD_STATE Routine was called from an initialization or termina- tion function. E_NO_ROOM Menu is too large for its window. E_NOT_POSTED The menu has not been posted. E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND The menu driver code saw an unknown request code. E_NO_MATCH Character failed to match. E_NOT_SELECTABLE The designated item cannot be selected. E_NOT_CONNECTED No items are connected to the menu. E_REQUEST_DENIED The menu driver could not process the request. SEE ALSO curses(3X) and 3X pages whose names begin "menu_" for detailed descriptions of the entry points. NOTES The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header files <curses.h> and <eti.h>. In your library list, libmenu.a should be before libncurses.a; that is, you want to say `-lmenu -lncurses', not the other way around (which would give you a link error using GNU ld(1) and many other linkers). PORTABILITY These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions. AUTHORS Juergen Pfeifer. Manual pages and adaptation for ncurses by Eric S.
