     set_item_value, item_value - set and get menu item values

SYNOPSIS
     #include <menu.h>

     int set_item_value(ITEM *item, bool value);

DESCRIPTION
     If  you  turn  off  the menu option O_ONEVALUE (e.g., with set_menu_opts or
     menu_opts_off; see menu_opts(3X)), the menu becomes multi-valued; that  is,
     more than one item may simultaneously be selected.

     In  a  multi_valued  menu,  you can used set_item_value to select the given
     menu item (second argument TRUE) or deselect it (second argument FALSE).

     The function set_item_value returns one of the following:

     E_OK
	  The routine succeeded.

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

     E_REQUEST_DENIED
	  The menu driver could not process the request.

PORTABILITY

     on Version 7 or BSD versions.
