NAME
       menuitemvalue:  setitemvalue, itemvalue - set and get menus item
       values

SYNOPSIS
       #include <menu.h>

       int setitemvalue(ITEM *item, int bool);
       int itemvalue(ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION
       Unlike single-valued menus, multi-valued menus enable the end-user to
       select one or more items from a menu.  setitemvalue sets the
       selected value of the item -- TRUE (selected) or FALSE (not
       selected).  setitemvalue may be used only with multi-valued menus.
       To make a menu multi-valued, use setmenuopts or menuoptsoff to
       turn off the option OONEVALUE.  [see menu_opts(3X)].

       itemvalue returns the select value of item, either TRUE (selected)
       or FALSE (unselected).

RETURN VALUE
       setitemvalue returns one of the following:
       EOK             - The routine returned successfully.
       ESYSTEMERROR   - System error.
       EREQUESTDENIED - The menu driver could not process
                          the request.

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