Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/, local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees. Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded. 127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.

.SH NAME

\fBmenu\fP \-

present menus in \fIcurses\fP windows
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fB#include <menu.h>
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The \fBmenu\fP library provides terminal-independent facilities for composing
|
|
menu systems on character-cell terminals.
|
|
The library includes: item routines,
|
|
which create and modify menu items; and menu routines, which group items into
|
|
menus, display menus on the screen, and handle interaction with the user.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fBmenu\fP library uses the \fBcurses\fP libraries, and a curses
|
|
initialization routine such as \fBinitscr\fP must be called before using any of
|
|
these functions.
|
|
To use the \fBmenu\fP library, link with the options
|
|
\fB\-lmenu \-lcurses\fP.
|
|
.
|
|
.SS "Current Default Values for Item Attributes"
|
|
.
|
|
The \fBmenu\fP library maintains a default value for item attributes.
|
|
You can
|
|
get or set this default by calling the appropriate \fBget_\fP or \fBset_\fP
|
|
routine with a
|
|
.I NULL
|
|
item pointer.
|
|
Changing this default with a
|
|
\fBset_\fP function affects future item creations, but does not change the
|
|
rendering of items already created.
|
|
.
|
|
.SS "Routine Name Index"
|
|
.
|
|
The following table lists each \fBmenu\fP routine and the name of
|
|
