DESCRIPTION
These functions make it possible to set hook functions to be called at various
points in the automatic processing of input event codes by
menu_driver.
The function set_item_init sets a hook to be called at men-post time and
each time the selected item changes (after the change).
item_init
returns the current item init hook, if any
(NULL
if there is no such hook).
The function set_item_term sets a hook to be called at men-unpost time
and each time the selected item changes (before the change).
item_term
returns the current item term hook, if any
(NULL
if there is no such hook).
The function set_menu_init sets a hook to be called at men-post time and
just after the top row on the menu changes once it is posted.
menu_init
returns the current menu init hook, if any
(NULL
if there is no such hook).
The function set_menu_term sets a hook to be called at men-unpost time
and just before the top row on the menu changes once it is posted.
menu_term returns the current menu term hook, if any
(NULL
if there is no such hook).
