</PRE><H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
       These  functions make it possible to set hook functions to be called at
       various points in the automatic processing  of  input  event  codes  by
       <STRONG>form_driver</STRONG>.

       The  function <STRONG>set_field_init</STRONG> sets a hook to be called at form-post time
       and  each  time  the  selected  field  changes  (after   the   change).
       <STRONG>field_init</STRONG>  returns  the current field init hook, if any (<STRONG>NULL</STRONG> if there
       is no such hook).

       The function <STRONG>set_field_term</STRONG> sets a hook to  be  called  at  form-unpost
       time  and  each  time  the  selected field changes (before the change).
       <STRONG>field_term</STRONG> returns the current field term hook, if any (<STRONG>NULL</STRONG>  if  there
       is no such hook).

       The  function  <STRONG>set_form_init</STRONG> sets a hook to be called at form-post time
       and just after a page change once it is posted.  <STRONG>form_init</STRONG> returns  the
       current form init hook, if any (<STRONG>NULL</STRONG> if there is no such hook).

       The function <STRONG>set_form_term</STRONG> sets a hook to be called at form-unpost time
       and just before a page change once it is posted.  <STRONG>form_init</STRONG> returns the
       current form term hook, if any (<STRONG>NULL</STRONG> if there is no such hook).


</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
       Routines  that  return  pointers  return <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> on error.  Other routines
       return one of the following:

       <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.

       <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
            System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno(3)</STRONG>).

       The  header  file  <STRONG>&lt;form.h&gt;</STRONG>  automatically  includes  the  header  file

       These  routines emulate the System V forms library.  They were not sup-
       ported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
