       int set_field_init(FORM *form, Form_Hook	func);
       Form_Hook field_init(const FORM *form);

       int set_field_term(FORM *form, Form_Hook	func);
       Form_Hook field_term(const FORM *form);

       int set_form_init(FORM *form, Form_Hook func);

DESCRIPTION
       These  functions	make it	possible to set	hook functions to be called at
       various points in the automatic processing  of  input  event  codes  by
       form_driver.

   set_field_init
       sets  a	hook to	be called at form-post time and	each time the selected
       field changes (after the	change).

   field_init
       returns the current field init hook, if any (NULL if there is  no  such
       hook).

   set_field_term
       sets a hook to be called	at form-unpost time and	each time the selected
       field changes (before the change).

   field_term
       returns	the  current field term	hook, if any (NULL if there is no such
       hook).

   set_form_init
       sets a hook to be called	at form-post time and just after a page	change
       once it is posted.

   form_init
       returns the current form	init hook, if any (NULL	if there  is  no  such
       hook).

   set_form_term
       sets  a	hook  to  be called at form-unpost time	and just before	a page
       change once it is posted.

   form_term
       returns the current form	term hook, if any (NULL	if there  is  no  such
       hook).

RETURN VALUE
       Routines	that return pointers return NULL on error.  Other routines re-
       turn one	of the following:

       E_OK The	routine	succeeded.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
	    System error occurred (see errno(3)).

PORTABILITY
       These  routines emulate the System V forms library.  They were not sup-
       ported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
