If the second argument is a printable ASCII character, the driver places it in the current position in the current field. If it is one of
the forms requests listed above, that request is executed.
If the second argument is neither printable ASCII nor one of the above pre-defined form requests, the driver assumes it is an application-
specific command and returns E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND. Application-defined commands should be defined relative to MAX_COMMAND, the maximum value
of these pre-defined requests.
RETURN VALUE
form_driver return one of the following error codes:
E_OK The routine succeeded.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR
System error occurred (see errno).
E_BAD_ARGUMENT
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
E_BAD_STATE
Routine was called from an initialization or termination function.
E_NOT_POSTED
The form has not been posted.
E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND
The form driver code saw an unknown request code.
E_INVALID_FIELD
Contents of field is invalid.
E_REQUEST_DENIED
The form driver could not process the request.
SEE ALSO curses(3X), form(3X).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header files <curses.h>.
PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
