SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
int pos_form_cursor(FORM *form);

form operation.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns one of the following:
- E_OK
-
The routine succeeded.
- E_BAD_ARGUMENT
-
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
- E_NOT_POSTED
-
The form has not been posted.
- E_SYSTEM_ERROR
-
System error occurred (see errno).
SEE ALSO
curses(3X), form(3X).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header file
<curses.h>.
PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on
Version 7 or BSD versions.
