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:
      E_OK            - The routine returned successfully.
      E_SYSTEM_ERROR  - System error.
      E_BAD_ARGUMENT  - An incorrect argument was passed to the routine.
      E_POSTED        - The menu is already posted.
      E_BAD_STATE     - The routine was called from an initialization or
                        termination function.
      E_NO_ROOM       - The menu does not fit within its subwindow.
      E_NOT_POSTED    - The menu has not been posted.
      E_NOT_CONNECTED - No items are connected to the menu.

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