</PRE>
<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
       <STRONG>form_opts</STRONG> - set and get form options


</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
       <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;form.h&gt;</STRONG>
       int set_form_opts(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);
       int form_opts_on(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);
       int form_opts_off(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);
       Field_Options form_opts(const FORM *form);


</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
       The  function  <STRONG>set_form_opts</STRONG>  sets  all  the  given form's
       option bits  (form  option  bits  may  be  logically-OR'ed
       together).

       The  function <STRONG>form_opts_on</STRONG> turns on the given option bits,
       and leaves others alone.

       The function <STRONG>form_opts_off</STRONG>  turns  off  the  given  option
       bits, and leaves others alone.

       The  function  <STRONG>form_opts</STRONG> returns the form's current option
       bits.

       The following options are defined (all are on by default):

       O_NL_OVERLOAD
            Overload  the  <STRONG>REQ_NEW_LINE</STRONG>  forms  driver request so
            that calling it at the end of a  field  goes  to  the
            next field.

       O_BS_OVERLOAD
            Overload  the  <STRONG>REQ_DEL_PREV</STRONG>  forms  driver request so
            that calling it at the beginning of a field  goes  to
            the previous field.


</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
       Except for <STRONG>form_opts</STRONG>, each routine returns one of the fol-
       lowing:

       <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.

       <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
            System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno</STRONG>).

<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
       The header file <STRONG>&lt;form.h&gt;</STRONG> automatically includes the header
       file <STRONG>&lt;curses.h&gt;</STRONG>.


</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
       These  routines  emulate the System V forms library.  They
       were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
