<STRONG>menu_mark</STRONG> - get and set the menu mark string
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
<STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;menu.h&gt;</STRONG>
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
int set_menu_mark(MENU *menu, const char *mark);
const char *menu_mark(const MENU *menu);
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
In order to make menu selections visible on older termi-
nals without highlighting or color capability, the menu
library marks selected items in a menu with a prefix
string.
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The function <STRONG>set_menu_mark</STRONG> sets the mark string for the
given menu. Calling <STRONG>set_menu_mark</STRONG> with a null menu item
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
will abolish the mark string. Note that changing the
length of the mark string for a menu while the menu is
posted is likely to produce unhelpful behavior.
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The default string is "-" (a dash). Calling <STRONG>set_menu_mark</STRONG>
with a <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> menu argument will change this default.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The function <STRONG>menu_mark</STRONG> returns the menu's mark string (or
<STRONG>NULL</STRONG> if there is none).
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The function <STRONG>menu_mark</STRONG> returns <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> on error. The func-
tion <STRONG>set_menu_mark</STRONG> may return the following error codes:
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
<STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.

2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
<STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>

2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00

<STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
