NAME

     menu_opts - set and get menu options

SYNOPSIS

     #include <menu.h>
     int set_menu_opts(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);
     int menu_opts_on(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);
     int menu_opts_off(MENU *menu, OPTIONS opts);
     OPTIONS menu_opts(const MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION

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

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

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

     The function menu_opts returns the menu's current option
     bits.

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

     O_ONEVALUE
          Only one item can be selected for this menu.

     O_SHOWDESC
          Display the item descriptions when the menu is posted.

     O_ROWMAJOR
          Display the menu in row-major order.

     O_IGNORECASE
          Ignore the case when pattern-matching.

     O_SHOWMATCH
          Move the cursor to within the item name while pattern-
          matching.

     O_NONCYCLIC
          Don't wrap around next-item and previous-item, requests
          to the other end of the menu.

     lowing:
