mitem_opts(3X)                                     mitem_opts(3X)

NAME
       mitem_opts - set and get menu item options

SYNOPSIS
       #include <menu.h>
       int set_item_opts(ITEM *item, OPTIONS opts);
       int item_opts_on(ITEM *item, OPTIONS opts);
       int item_opts_off(ITEM *item, OPTIONS opts);
       OPTIONS item_opts(const ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function  set_item_opts  sets  all  the  given item's
       option bits  (menu  option  bits  may  be  logically-OR'ed
       together).

       The  function item_opts_on turns on the given option bits,
       and leaves others alone.

       The function item_opts_off  turns  off  the  given  option
       bits, and leaves others alone.

       The  function  item_opts returns the item's current option
       bits.

       There is only one defined option bit  mask,  O_SELECTABLE.
       When this is on, the item may be selected during menu pro-
       cessing.  This option defaults to on.

RETURN VALUE
       Except for item_opts, each routine returns one of the fol-
       lowing:

       E_OK The routine succeeded.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
            System error occurred (see errno).

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.
