68       The  function  <STRONG>set_current_field</STRONG>  sets  the  current field of the given
69       form; <STRONG>current_field</STRONG> returns the current field of the given form.
70
71       The function <STRONG>unfocus_current_field</STRONG> removes the focus from  the  current
72       field  of  the  form.  In such state, inquiries via <STRONG>current_field</STRONG> shall
73       return a NULL pointer.
74
75       The function <STRONG>set_form_page</STRONG> sets the form's page number (goes to page  <EM>n</EM>
76       of the form).
77
78       The function <STRONG>form_page</STRONG> returns the form's current page number.
79
80       The  function  <STRONG>field_index</STRONG>  returns the index of the field in the field
81       array of the form it is connected to.  It returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> if  the  argument
82       is the null pointer or the field is not connected.

86       Except for <STRONG>form_page</STRONG>, each routine returns one of the following:
87
88       <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.
89
90       <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
91            Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
92
93       <STRONG>E_BAD_STATE</STRONG>
94            Routine was called from an initialization or termination function.
95
96       <STRONG>E_INVALID_FIELD</STRONG>
97            Contents of a field are not valid.
98
99       <STRONG>E_REQUEST_DENIED</STRONG>
100            The form driver could not process the request.
101
102       <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
103            System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno(3)</STRONG>).

107       These  routines  emulate  the  System  V  forms library.  They were not
108       supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
109
110       The <STRONG>unfocus_current_field</STRONG> function is an <EM>ncurses</EM> extension.
