FORMS(3) BSD Library Functions Manual FORMS(3)NAME
form_opts, form_opts_off, form_opts_on, set_form_opts -- form library
LIBRARY
Curses Form Library (libform, -lform)
SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
Form_Options
form_opts(FORM *form);
int
form_opts_off(FORM *form, Form_Options options);
int
form_opts_on(FORM *form, Form_Options options);
int
set_form_opts(FORM *form, Form_Options options);
DESCRIPTION
The function form_opts() returns the current options that are set on the given form. The form_opts_off() will turn off the form options
given in options for the form, similarly, form_opts_on() will turn on the options specified in options for the given form. The form options
can be set to an explicit set by calling set_form_opts().
PARAMETERS
The following form options are valid:
O_BS_OVERLOAD If this option is set and the cursor is at the first character in the field then the backspace character will perform the same
function as a REQ_PREV_FIELD driver request, moving to the previous field in the form.
O_NL_OVERLOAD If this option is set and the cursor is at the end of the field then the new line character will perform the same function as
a REQ_NEXT_FIELD driver request, moving to the next field in the form.
By default no form options are set.
RETURN VALUES
Functions returning pointers will return NULL if an error is detected. The functions that return an int will return one of the following
error values:
E_OK The function was successful.

The header <form.h> automatically includes both <curses.h> and <eti.h>.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:
$ ls -ld /usr/bin /usr/bin/cat
drwxrwxr-x 3 root bin 8704 Sep 23 2004 /usr/bin
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin ... (6 Replies)

99600 ssssssssss
9964 fffffffffffff
and would like to sort it numerically on the first field. I tried:
sort -nr --key=1 ....
The output I get is:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I'm trying to install a PGX32 video card on my Sparc 10 Ultra running Solaris 10.

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
The prompt is... (2 Replies)
Hey gang, I have a list of times I need to sum up. This list can vary from a few to a few thousand entries. Now I had found a closed reference to adding time titled "add up time with xx:yy format in bash how?" In it, the example works great for that formatted list of times... This is the reply code...

Usually when I on the evening go to bed I take some interesting book with me. I read it for a while to get me down to sleep. Probably most people seek information from the Nett by googleing but I am so oldfashioned I prefer a real book ;)
But what a book. The one I found and ordered is BSD Unix®... (0 Replies)
