       <STRONG>mitem_userptr</STRONG>  -  associate  application  data with a menu
       item

       int set_item_userptr(ITEM *item, void *userptr);

<H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
       Every menu item has a field  that  can  be  used  to  hold
       application-specific  data  (that is, the menu-driver code
       leaves it alone).  These functions get and set that field.


</PRE>
<H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
       The function  <STRONG>item_userptr</STRONG>  returns  a  pointer  (possibly
       <STRONG>NULL</STRONG>).  It does not set errno.

       The <STRONG>set_item_userptr</STRONG> always returns <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> (success).

       These routines emulate the System V  menu  library.   They
       were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.

       The user pointer is a void pointer.  We chose not to leave
       it as a char pointer for SVr4 compatibility.

       curses by Eric S. Raymond.
