Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +053066 The function <STRONG>set_current_item</STRONG> sets the current item (the
67 item on which the menu cursor is positioned). <STRONG>cur-</STRONG>
68 <STRONG>rent_item</STRONG> returns a pointer to the current item in the
69 given menu.
70
71 The function <STRONG>set_top_row</STRONG> sets the top row of the menu to
72 show the given row (the top row is initially 0, and is
73 reset to this value whenever the <STRONG>O_ROWMAJOR</STRONG> option is tog-
74 gled). The item leftmost on the given row becomes cur-
75 rent. The function <STRONG>top_row</STRONG> returns the number of the top
76 menu row being displayed.
77
78 The function <STRONG>item_index</STRONG> returns the (zero-origin) index of
79 <EM>item</EM> in the menu's item pointer list.

Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +053084 <STRONG>current_item</STRONG> returns a pointer (which may be <STRONG>NULL</STRONG>). It
85 does not set errno.
86
87 <STRONG>top_row</STRONG> and <STRONG>item_index</STRONG> return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> (the general <STRONG>curses</STRONG>
88 error value) if their <EM>menu</EM> parameter is <STRONG>NULL</STRONG>.
89
90 <STRONG>set_current_item</STRONG> and <STRONG>set_top_row</STRONG> return one of the follow-
91 ing:
92
93 <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.
94
95 <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
96 Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
97 ment.
98
99 <STRONG>E_BAD_STATE</STRONG>
100 Routine was called from an initialization or termina-
101 tion function.
102
103 <STRONG>E_NOT_CONNECTED</STRONG>
104 No items are connected to the menu.
105
106 <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
107 System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno</STRONG>).

Amit Daniel Kachhape6a01f52011-07-20 11:45:59 +0530123 These routines emulate the System V menu library. They
124 were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
125
126 The SVr4 menu library documentation specifies the <STRONG>top_row</STRONG>
127 and <STRONG>index_item</STRONG> error value as -1 (which is the value of
128 <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>).
