+.SH NAME
+\fBmitem_current\fR \- set and get current_menu_item
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fB#include <menu.h>\fR
+.br
+int set_current_item(MENU *menu, const ITEM *item);
+.br
+ITEM *current_item(const MENU *menu);
+.br
+int set_top_row(MENU *menu, int row);
+.br
+int top_row(const MENU *menu);
+.br
+int item_index(const ITEM *item);
+.br
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The function \fBset_current_item\fR sets the current item (the item on which
+the menu cursor is positioned). \fBcurrent_item\fR returns a pointer to the
+current item in the given menu.
+.PP
+The function \fBset_top_row\fR sets the top row of the menu to show the given
+row (the top row is initially 0, and is reset to this value whenever the
+\fBO_ROWMAJOR\fR option is toggled). The item leftmost on the given row
+becomes current. The function \fBtop_row\fR returns the number of the top menu
+row being displayed.
+.PP
+The function \fBitem_index\fR returns the (zero-origin) index of \fIitem\fR in
+the menu's item pointer list.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+\fBcurrent_item\fR returns a pointer (which may be \fBNULL\fR).
+It does not set errno.
+.PP
+\fBtop_row\fR and \fBitem_index\fR return \fBERR\fR (the general \fBcurses\fR
+error value) if their \fImenu\fP parameter is \fBNULL\fP.
+.PP
+\fBset_current_item\fR and \fBset_top_row\fR return one of the following:
+.TP 5
+.B E_OK
+The routine succeeded.
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_STATE
+Routine was called from an initialization or termination function.
+.TP 5
+.B E_NOT_CONNECTED
+No items are connected to the menu.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR).
+.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.
+.PP
+The SVr4 menu library documentation specifies the \fBtop_row\fR and
+\fBindex_item\fR error value as \-1 (which is the value of \fBERR\fR).
