NAME
       menu_current - set and get current_menu_item

SYNOPSIS
       #include <menu.h>
       int set_current_item(MENU *menu, const ITEM *item);
       ITEM *current_item(const MENU *menu);
       int set_top_row(MENU *menu, int row);
       int top_row(const MENU *menu);
       int item_index(const ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function set_current_item sets the current item (the item on which
       the menu cursor is positioned).	current_item returns a pointer to  the
       current item in the given menu.

       The function set_top_row sets the top row of the menu to show the given
       row (the top row is initially 0, and is reset to	 this  value  whenever
       the  O_ROWMAJOR option is toggled).  The item leftmost on the given row
       becomes current.	 The function top_row returns the number  of  the  top
       menu row being displayed.

       The  function item_index returns the (zero-origin) index of item in the
       menu's item pointer list.

RETURN VALUE
       current_item returns a pointer (which may be NULL).  It	does  not  set
       errno.

       top_row	and  item_index return ERR (the general curses error value) if
       their menu parameter is NULL.

       set_current_item and set_top_row return one of the following:

       E_OK The routine succeeded.

       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_CONNECTED
	    No items are connected to the menu.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
	    System error occurred (see errno).

SEE ALSO
       ncurses(3NCURSES), menu(3MENU).

NOTES
       The  header  file  <menu.h>  automatically  includes  the  header  file
       <curses.h>.

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

       The  SVr4  menu	library	 documentation	specifies  the	 top_row   and
       index_item error value as -1 (which is the value of ERR).
