int post_form(FORM *form);

int unpost_form(FORM *form);

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

unpost_form() erases form from its associated subwindow.

These routines return one of the following: E_OK

E_SYSTEM_ERROR E_BAD_ARGUMENT E_POSTED E_NOT_POSTED E_NO_ROOM E_BAD_STATE E_NOT_CONNECTED
