NAME
       set_form_opts,  form_opts_on,  form_opts_off,  form_opts	 - set and get
       form options

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<form.h>

       int set_form_opts(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);
       Field_Options form_opts(const FORM *form);

       int form_opts_on(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);
       int form_opts_off(FORM *form, Field_Options opts);

DESCRIPTION
       The function set_form_opts sets all the given form's option bits	 (form
       option bits may be logically-OR'ed together).

       The  function  form_opts_on  turns on the given option bits, and	leaves
       others alone.

       The function form_opts_off turns	off the	given option bits, and	leaves
       others alone.

       The function form_opts returns the form's current option	bits.

       The following options are defined (all are on by	default):

       O_NL_OVERLOAD
	    Overload  the REQ_NEW_LINE forms driver request so that calling it
	    at the end of a field goes to the next field.

       O_BS_OVERLOAD
	    Overload the REQ_DEL_PREV forms driver request so that calling  it
	    at the beginning of	a field	goes to	the previous field.

RETURN VALUE
       Except for form_opts, each routine returns 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.
