These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not sup-
ported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
- A few functions are extensions added for ncurses, e.g., <STRONG>form_driver_w</STRONG>,
- <STRONG>unfocus_current_field</STRONG>.
+ The menu facility was documented in SVr4.2 in <EM>Character</EM> <EM>User</EM> <EM>Interface</EM>
+ <EM>Programming</EM> <EM>(UNIX</EM> <EM>SVR4.2)</EM>.

+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> NetBSD curses.

+ ncurses, but not provided by other implementations, e.g.,
+ <STRONG>form_driver_w</STRONG>, <STRONG>unfocus_current_field</STRONG>.
