Calling \fBset_menu_mark\fR witha \fBNULL\fR menu argument will change this default.The function \fBmenu_mark\fR returns the menu's mark string (or \fBNULL\fR ifthere is none)..SH RETURN VALUEThe function \fBmenu_mark\fR returns \fBNULL\fR on error.  The function\fBset_menu_mark\fR may return the following error codes:.TP 5\fBE_OK\fRThe routine succeeded..TP 5\fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fRSystem error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR)..TP 5\fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fRRoutine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument..SH SEE ALSO\fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBmenu\fR(3X)..SH NOTESThe header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file\fB<curses.h>\fR..SH PORTABILITYThese routines emulate the System V menu library.  They were not supported onVersion 7 or BSD versions..SH AUTHORSJuergen Pfeifer.  Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by EricS.
