menu_cursor(3X)                                   menu_cursor(3X)

NAME
       menu_cursor - position a menu's cursor

SYNOPSIS
       #include <menu.h>
       int pos_menu_cursor(const MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function  pos_menu_cursor  restores the cursor to the
       current position associated with the menu's selected item.
       This  is  useful after curses routines have been called to
       do screen-painting in response to a menu select.

RETURN VALUE
       This routine returns one of the following:

       E_OK The routine succeeded.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
            System error occurred (see errno).

       E_BAD_ARGUMENT
            Routine detected an incorrect or  out-of-range  argu-
            ment.

       E_NOT_POSTED
            The menu has not been posted.

SEE ALSO
       curses(3X), menu(3X).

NOTES
       The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header
       file <curses.h>.

PORTABILITY
       These routines emulate the System V  menu  library.   They
       were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
