       #include <menu.h>
       int pos_menu_cursor(const MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function  pos_menu_cursor restores the cursor to the current posi-tion position
       tion associated with the menu's selected item.  This  is  useful  after

       E_NOT_POSTED
            The menu has not been posted.

SEE ALSO
       curses(3X), menu(3X).

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

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