       #include <menu.h>

       int set_item_init(MENU *menu, void (*func)(MENU *));

       void menu_init(MENU *menu);

       int set_menu_term(MENU *menu, void (*func)(MENU *));

       void menu_term(MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION

       set_item_init() assigns the application-defined function to be called when the menu is posted and just  after  the  current  item  changes.
       item_init()  returns  a	pointer to the item initialization routine, if any, called when the menu is posted and just after the current item
       changes.

       set_item_term() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is unposted and just before the  current  item  changes.
       item_term()  returns  a	pointer  to  the  termination  function, if any, called when the menu is unposted and just before the current item
       changes.

       set_menu_init() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is posted and just after the top row changes on a posted
       menu.  menu_init()  returns a pointer to the menu initialization routine, if any, called when the menu is posted and just after the top row
       changes on a posted menu.

       set_menu_term() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is unposted and just before the top  row  changes  on  a
