<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
<B>menu_mark</B> - get and set the menu mark string
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
<B>#include</B> <B><menu.h></B>
int set_menu_mark(MENU *menu, const char *mark);
const char *menu_mark(const MENU *menu);
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
In order to make menu selections visible on older termi-
nals without highlighting or color capability, the menu
library marks selected items in a menu with a prefix
string.
The function <B>set_menu_mark</B> sets the mark string for the
given menu. Calling <B>set_menu_mark</B> with a null menu item
will abolish the mark string. Note that changing the
length of the mark string for a menu while the menu is
posted is likely to produce unhelpful behavior.
The default string is "-" (a dash). Calling <B>set_menu_mark</B>
with a <B>NULL</B> menu argument will change this default.
The function <B>menu_mark</B> returns the menu's mark string (or
<B>NULL</B> if there is none).
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
The function <B>menu_mark</B> returns <B>NULL</B> on error. The func-
tion <B>set_menu_mark</B> may return the following error codes:
<B>E_OK</B> The routine succeeded.
<B>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</B>
System error occurred (see <B>errno</B>).
<B>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</B>
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
ment.

</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
The header file <B><menu.h></B> automatically includes the header
file <B><curses.h></B>.
</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
These routines emulate the System V menu library. They
were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
