Code:

ITEM **my_items;

        my_items = (ITEM **)calloc(9, sizeof(ITEM *));
        for(i = 0; i < 9; ++i)
        my_items[i] = new_item( live[i].user , "USER" );

menu_item_new(3CURSES)					     Curses Library Functions					    menu_item_new(3CURSES)

NAME

       menu_item_new, new_item, free_item - create and destroy menus items

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lmenu  -lcurses	[ library... ]
       #include <menu.h>

       ITEM *new_item(char *name, char *desc);

       int free_item(ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION

       new_item() creates a new item from name and description, and returns a pointer to the new item.

       free_item() frees the storage allocated for item. Once an item is freed, the user can no longer connect it to a menu.

RETURN VALUES

       new_item() returns NULL on error.

       free_item() returns one of the following:

       E_OK		  The routine returned successfully.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR	  System error.

       E_BAD_ARGUMENT	  An incorrect argument was passed to the routine.

       E_CONNECTED	  One or more items are already connected to another menu.
