|
|---|
| 31 | .SH NAME
|
|---|
| 32 | \fBmenu_pattern\fR - get and set a menu's pattern buffer
|
|---|
| 33 | .SH SYNOPSIS
|
|---|
| 34 | \fB#include <menu.h>\fR
|
|---|
| 35 | .br
|
|---|
| 36 | int set_menu_pattern(MENU *menu, const char *pattern);
|
|---|
| 37 | .br
|
|---|
| 38 | char *menu_pattern(const MENU *menu);
|
|---|
| 39 | .br
|
|---|
| 40 | .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|---|
| 41 | Every menu has an associated pattern match buffer. As input events that are
|
|---|
| 42 | printable ASCII characters come in, they are appended to this match buffer
|
|---|
| 43 | and tested for a match, as described in \fBmenu_driver\fR(3X).
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | The function \fBset_menu_pattern\fR sets the pattern buffer for the given menu
|
|---|
| 46 | and tries to find the first matching item. If it succeeds, that item becomes
|
|---|
| 47 | current; if not, the current item does not change.
|
|---|
| 48 |
|
|---|
| 49 | The function \fBmenu_pattern\fR returns the pattern buffer of the given
|
|---|
| 50 | \fImenu\fR.
|
|---|
| 51 | .SH RETURN VALUE
|
|---|
| 52 | The function \fBmenu_pattern\fR returns \fBNULL\fR on error. The function
|
|---|
| 53 | \fBset_menu_pattern\fR may return the following error codes:
|
|---|
| 54 | .TP 5
|
|---|
| 55 | \fBE_OK\fR
|
|---|
| 56 | The routine succeeded.
|
|---|
| 57 | .TP 5
|
|---|
| 58 | \fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR
|
|---|
| 59 | System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR).
|
|---|
| 60 | .TP 5
|
|---|
| 61 | \fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR
|
|---|
| 62 | Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
|
|---|
| 63 | .TP 5
|
|---|
| 64 | \fBE_NO_MATCH\fR
|
|---|
| 65 | Character failed to match.
|
|---|
| 66 | .SH SEE ALSO
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 68 | .SH NOTES
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 70 | \fB<curses.h>\fR.
|
|---|
| 71 | .SH PORTABILITY
|
|---|
| 72 | These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on
|
|---|
| 73 | Version 7 or BSD versions.
