DESCRIPTION

-       The function new_item allocates a new item and initializes
-       it from the name and description pointers.  Please  notice
-       that  the  item  stores  only the pointers to the name and
-       description. Those pointers must be valid during the life-
-       time of the item. So you should be very careful with names
-       or descriptions allocated on the stack of some routines.
-       The function free_item de-allocates an item. Please notice
-       that  it  is  the  responsibility  of  the  application to
-       release the memory for the name or the description of  the
-       item.
