+ Once a form has been posted (displayed), you should funnel + input events to it through form_driver. This routine has + three major input cases: + + o The input is a form navigation request. Navigation + request codes are constants defined in <form.h>, which + are distinct from the key- and character codes + returned by wgetch(3x). + + o The input is a printable character. Printable charac- + ters (which must be positive, less than 256) are + checked according to the program's locale settings. + + o The input is the KEY_MOUSE special key associated with + an mouse event. + + +
+ This extension simplifies the use of the forms library + using wide characters. The input is either a key code (a + request) or a wide character returned by get_wch(3x). The + type must be passed as well, to enable the library to + determine whether the parameter is a wide character or a + request. + + +
+ The form driver requests are as follows: + + Name Description + ------------------------------------------------------------------------- + REQ_BEG_FIELD Move to the beginning of the field. + REQ_BEG_LINE Move to the beginning of the line. + REQ_CLR_EOF Clear to end of field from cursor. + REQ_CLR_EOL Clear to end of line from cursor. + REQ_CLR_FIELD Clear the entire field. + REQ_DEL_CHAR Delete character at the cursor. + REQ_DEL_LINE Delete line at the cursor. + REQ_DEL_PREV Delete character before the cursor. + REQ_DEL_WORD Delete blank-delimited word at the cursor. + REQ_DOWN_CHAR Move down in the field. + REQ_DOWN_FIELD Move down to a field. + REQ_END_FIELD Move to the end of the field. + REQ_END_LINE Move to the end of the line. + REQ_FIRST_FIELD Move to the first field. + REQ_FIRST_PAGE Move to the first page. + REQ_INS_CHAR Insert a blank at the cursor. + REQ_INS_LINE Insert a blank line at the cursor. + REQ_INS_MODE Enter insert mode. + REQ_LAST_FIELD Move to the last field. + REQ_LAST_PAGE Move to the last field. + REQ_LEFT_CHAR Move left in the field. + + REQ_LEFT_FIELD Move left to a field. + REQ_NEW_LINE Insert or overlay a new line. + REQ_NEXT_CHAR Move to the next char. + REQ_NEXT_CHOICE Display next field choice. + REQ_NEXT_FIELD Move to the next field. + REQ_NEXT_LINE Move to the next line. + REQ_NEXT_PAGE Move to the next page. + REQ_NEXT_PAGE Move to the next page. + REQ_NEXT_WORD Move to the next word. + REQ_OVL_MODE Enter overlay mode. + REQ_PREV_CHAR Move to the previous char. + REQ_PREV_CHOICE Display previous field choice. + REQ_PREV_FIELD Move to the previous field. + REQ_PREV_LINE Move to the previous line. + REQ_PREV_PAGE Move to the previous page. + REQ_PREV_WORD Move to the previous word. + REQ_RIGHT_CHAR Move right in the field. + REQ_RIGHT_FIELD Move right to a field. + REQ_SCR_BCHAR Scroll the field backward a character. + REQ_SCR_BHPAGE Scroll the field backward half a page. + REQ_SCR_BLINE Scroll the field backward a line. + REQ_SCR_BPAGE Scroll the field backward a page. + REQ_SCR_FCHAR Scroll the field forward a character. + REQ_SCR_FHPAGE Scroll the field forward half a page. + REQ_SCR_FLINE Scroll the field forward a line. + REQ_SCR_FPAGE Scroll the field forward a page. + REQ_SCR_HBHALF Horizontal scroll the field backward half a line. + REQ_SCR_HBLINE Horizontal scroll the field backward a line. + REQ_SCR_HFHALF Horizontal scroll the field forward half a line. + REQ_SCR_HFLINE Horizontal scroll the field forward a line. + REQ_SFIRST_FIELD Move to the sorted first field. + REQ_SLAST_FIELD Move to the sorted last field. + REQ_SNEXT_FIELD Move to the sorted next field. + REQ_SPREV_FIELD Move to the sorted previous field. + REQ_UP_CHAR Move up in the field. + REQ_UP_FIELD Move up to a field. + REQ_VALIDATION Validate field. + + If the second argument is a printable character, the + driver places it in the current position in the current + field.

+ If the second argument is the KEY_MOUSE special key, the + associated mouse event is translated into one of the above + pre-defined requests.

This return value makes sense, because a + double click usually means that an field-specific + action should be returned. It is exactly the pur- + pose of this return value to signal that an appli- + cation specific command should be executed. - REQ_VALIDATION - Validate field. + o If a translation into a request was done, + form_driver returns the result of this request. - REQ_NEXT_CHOICE - Display next field choice. + If you clicked outside the user window or the mouse event + could not be translated into a form request an + E_REQUEST_DENIED is returned. - REQ_PREV_CHOICE - Display previous field choice. - If the second argument is a printable ASCII character, the - driver places it in the current position in the current - field.
