NAME

pos_form_cursor - position a form window cursor

SYNOPSIS

#include <form.h>

int pos_form_cursor(FORM *form);

DESCRIPTION

The function pos_form_cursor restores the cursor to the position required for the forms driver to continue processing requests. This is useful after curses routines have been called to do scree-painting in response to a form operation.

RETURN VALUE

This routine returns one of the following:

E_OK: The routine succeeded.
E_BAD_ARGUMENT: Routine detected an incorrect or ou-o-range argument.
E_NOT_POSTED: The form has not been posted.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR: System error occurred (see errno(3)).

PORTABILITY

These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
