+<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
+ The function <B>new_item</B> allocates a new item and initializes
+ it from the <B>name</B> and <B>description</B> pointers. Please notice
+ that the item stores only the pointers to the name and
+ description. Those pointers must be valid during the life-
+ time of the item. So you should be very carefull with
+ names or descriptions allocated on the stack of some rou-
+ tines.
+ The function <B>free_item</B> de-allocates an item. Please notice
+ that it is the responsibility of the application to
+ release the memory for the name or the description of the
+ item.
+
+
+</PRE>
+<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
+ The function <B>new_item</B> returns <B>NULL</B> on error.
+
+ The function <B>free_item</B> returns one of the following:
