SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
int set_field_opts(FIELD *field, Field_Options opts);
int field_opts_on(FIELD *field, Field_Options opts);
int field_opts_off(FIELD *field, Field_Options opts);
Field_Options field_opts(const FIELD *field);
DESCRIPTION
The function set_field_opts sets all the given field's option bits (field option bits may be logically-OR'ed together).
The function field_opts_on turns on the given option bits, and leaves others alone.
The function field_opts_off turns off the given option bits, and leaves others alone.
The function field_opts returns the field's current option bits.
The following options are defined (all are on by default):
O_VISIBLE
The field is displayed. If this option is off, display of the field is suppressed.
