 .SH NAME
-\fBmenu_format\fR - set and get menu sizes
+\fBmenu_format\fR \- set and get menu sizes
 .SH SYNOPSIS
 \fB#include <menu.h>\fR
 .br
 int set_menu_format(MENU *menu, int rows, int cols);
 .br
-int menu_format(const MENU *menu, int *rows, int *cols);
+void menu_format(const MENU *menu, int *rows, int *cols);
 .br
 .SH DESCRIPTION
 The function \fBset_menu_format\fR sets the maximum display size of the given
 menu.  If this size is too small to display all menu items, the menu will be
 made scrollable. If this size is larger than the menus subwindow and the
 subwindow is too small to display all menu items, \fBpost_menu()\fR will fail.
-
+.PP
 The default format is 16 rows, 1 column.  Calling \fBset_menu_format\fR with a
 null menu pointer will change this default.  A zero row or column argument to
 \fBset_menu_format\fR is interpreted as a request not to change the current
 value.
-
+.PP
 The function \fBmenu_format\fR returns the maximum-size constraints for the
 given menu into the storage addressed by \fBrows\fR and \fBcols\fR.
