The function form_opts_off turns off the given option bits, and leaves others alone. The function form_opts returns the form's current option bits. The following options are defined (all are on by default): O_NL_OVERLOAD Overload the REQ_NEW_LINE forms driver request so that calling it at the end of a field goes to the next field. O_BS_OVERLOAD Overload the REQ_DEL_PREV forms driver request so that calling it at the beginning of a field goes to the previous field.
RETURN VALUE
Except for form_opts, each routine returns one of the following: E_OK The routine succeeded. E_SYSTEM_ERROR System error occurred (see errno(3)).
