+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These are building blocks for the form library,
+defining fields that can be created using \fBset_fieldtype\fP(3X).
+Each provides functions for field- and character-validation,
+according to the given datatype.
+.SS TYPE_ALNUM
+This holds alphanumeric data.
+.SS TYPE_ALPHA
+This holds alphabetic data.
+.SS TYPE_ENUM
+This holds an enumerated type.
+.SS TYPE_INTEGER
+This holds a decimal integer.
+.SS TYPE_IPV4
+This holds an IPv4 internet address, e.g., "127.0.0.1".
+.SS TYPE_NUMERIC
+This holds a decimal number, with optional sign and decimal point.
+.SS TYPE_REGEXP
+This holds a regular expression.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+The \fBTYPE_IPV4\fP variable is an extension not provided by older
+implementations of the form library.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+\fBform\fR(3X).
