NAME
       formpost:  postform, unpostform - write or erase forms from
       associated subwindows

SYNOPSIS
       #include <form.h>

       int postform(FORM *form);
       int unpostform(FORM *form);

DESCRIPTION
       postform writes form into its associated subwindow.  The application
       programmer must use curses library routines to display the form on
       the physical screen or call updatepanels if the panels library is
       being used.

       unpostform erases form from its associated subwindow.

RETURN VALUE
       These routines return one of the following:
       EOK            - The function returned successfully.
       ESYSTEMERROR  - System error.
       EBADARGUMENT  - An argument is incorrect.
       EPOSTED        - The form is posted.
       ENOTPOSTED    - The form is not posted.
       ENOROOM       - The form does not fit in the subwindow.
       EBADSTATE     - The routine was called from an initialization
                         or termination function.
       ENOTCONNECTED - The field is not connected to a form.

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