The menu window +displays any title and border associated with the window; the menu subwindow +displays the items of the menu that are currently available for selection. + +The first four functions get and set those windows. It is not necessary to set +either window; by default, the driver code uses \fBstdscr\fR for both. + +In the \fBset_\fR functions, window argument of \fBNULL\fR is treated as though +it were \fBstsdcr\fR. A menu argument of \fBNULL\fR is treated as a request +to change the system default menu window or subwindow. + +The function \fBscale_menu\fR returns the minimum size required for the +subwindow of \fImenu\fR. +.SH RETURN VALUE +Routines that return pointers return \fBNULL\fR on error. Routines that return +an integer return one of the following error codes: +.TP 5 +\fBE_OK\fR +The routine succeeded. +.TP 5 +\fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR +System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR). +.TP 5 +\fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR +Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. +.TP 5 +\fBE_POSTED\fR +The menu has already been posted. +.TP 5 +\fBE_NOT_CONNECTED\fR +No items are connected to the menu. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBmenu\fR(3X). +.SH NOTES +The header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file +\fB<curses.h>\fR. +.SH PORTABILITY +These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on +Version 7 or BSD versions. +.SH AUTHORS +Juergen Pfeifer. Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by Eric +S.
