   NAME
         menupost:  postmenu, unpostmenu - write or erase menus from
         associated subwindows

   SYNOPSIS
         #include <menu.h>

         int postmenu(MENU *menu);
         int unpostmenu(MENU *menu);

   DESCRIPTION
         postmenu writes menu to the subwindow.  The application programmer
         must use curses library routines to display the menu on the physical
         screen or call updatepanels if the panels library is being used.

         unpostmenu erases menu from its associated subwindow.

   RETURN VALUE
         These routines return one of the following:
         EOK            - The routine returned successfully.
         ESYSTEMERROR  - System error.
         EBADARGUMENT  - An incorrect argument was passed to the routine.
         EPOSTED        - The menu is already posted.
         EBADSTATE     - The routine was called from an initialization or
                           termination function.
         ENOROOM       - The menu does not fit within its subwindow.
         ENOTPOSTED    - The menu has not been posted.
         ENOTCONNECTED - No items are connected to the menu.

   NOTES
         The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header files
         <eti.h> and <curses.h>.
