SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
int pos_form_cursor(FORM *form);
DESCRIPTION
The function pos_form_cursor restores the cursor to the position
required for the forms driver to continue processing requests.
This is useful after curses routines have been called to do
screen-painting in response to a form operation.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns one of the following:
E_OK The routine succeeded.
E_BAD_ARGUMENT
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
E_NOT_POSTED
The form has not been posted.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR
System error occurred (see errno(3)).
SEE ALSO
curses(3X), form(3X).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header file
<curses.h>.
PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not
supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
