+.SH NAME
+\fBnew_item\fP,
+\fBfree_item\fP \-
+create and destroy menu items
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+\fB#include <menu.h>
+.PP
+\fBITEM *new_item(const char *\fIname\fP, const char *\fIdescription\fP);
+\fBint free_item(ITEM *\fIitem\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The function \fBnew_item\fP allocates a new item and initializes it from the
+\fBname\fP and \fBdescription\fP pointers.
+Please notice that the item stores
+only the pointers to the name and description.
+Those pointers must be valid
+during the lifetime of the item.
+So you should be very careful with names
+or descriptions allocated on the stack of some routines.
+.br
+The function \fBfree_item\fP de-allocates an item.
+Please notice that it
+is the responsibility of the application to release the memory for the
+name or the description of the item.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The function \fBnew_item\fP returns \fBNULL\fP on error.
+It sets \fBerrno\fP according to the function's failure:
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred, e.g., malloc failure.
+.PP
+The function \fBfree_item\fP returns one of the following:
+.TP 5
+.B E_OK
+The routine succeeded.
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.TP 5
+.B E_CONNECTED
+Item is connected to a menu.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fP(3)).
+.SH PORTABILITY

+They were not supported on
+Version 7 or BSD versions.
