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

ncurses(3NCURSES), form(3FORM).

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.
