| The function <STRONG>set_menu_spacing</STRONG> sets the spacing information for the |
| menu. Its parameters provide the description and the size (in rows and |
| columns). |
| |
| <EM>spc</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>description</EM> |
| controls the number of spaces between an item name and an item |
| description. It must not be larger than <STRONG>TABSIZE</STRONG>. The menu |
| system puts in the middle of this spacing area the pad |
| character. The remaining parts are filled with spaces. |
| |
| <EM>spc</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>rows</EM> |
| controls the number of rows that are used for an item. It must |
| not be larger than 3. The menu system inserts the blank lines |
| between item rows, these lines will contain the pad character in |
| the appropriate positions. |
| |
| <EM>spc</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>columns</EM> |
| controls the number of blanks between columns of items. It must |
| not be larger than <STRONG>TABSIZE</STRONG>. A value of 0 for all the spacing |
| values resets them to the default, which is 1 for all of them. |
| |
| The function <STRONG>menu_spacing</STRONG> returns the spacing information for the menu. |
| If a pointer is NULL, the corresponding information is simply not |
| returned. |
| |
| |
| </PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE> |
| Both routines return <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> on success. <STRONG>set_menu_spacing</STRONG> may return |
| <STRONG>E_POSTED</STRONG> if the menu is posted, or <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG> if one of the spacing |
| values is out of range. |

| These routines are specific to <EM>ncurses</EM>. They were not supported on |
| Version 7, BSD or System V implementations. It is recommended that any |
| code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION. |
