Current Default Values for Item Attributes

-       The  menu  library  maintains a default value for item attributes.  You

NOTES

-       <curses.h> and <eti.h>.
-
-       In your library list, libmenu.a should be before libncurses.a; that is,
-       you  should  say  "-lmenu  -lncurses",  not the other way around (which
