+.TH field_info 3FORM ""
+.SH NAME
+\fBdynamic_field_info\fP,
+\fBfield_info\fR \- retrieve field characteristics
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fB#include <form.h>\fR
+.br
+int field_info(const FIELD *field, int *rows, int *cols,
+ int *frow, int *fcol, int *nrow, int *nbuf);
+.br
+int dynamic_field_info(const FIELD *field, int *rows, int *cols, int *max);
+.br
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The function \fBfield_info\fR returns the sizes and other attributes passed in
+to the field at its creation time. The attributes are: height, width, row of
+upper-left corner, column of upper-left corner, number off-screen rows, and
+number of working buffers.
+.PP
+The function \fBdynamic_field_info\fR returns the actual size of the field, and
+its maximum possible size. If the field has no size limit, the location
+addressed by the third argument will be set to 0.
+A field can be made dynamic
+by turning off the \fBO_STATIC\fR option with \fBfield_opts_off\fR.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+These routines return one of the following:
+.TP 5
+.B E_OK
+The routine succeeded.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR).
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+\fBncurses\fR(3NCURSES) and related pages whose names begin "form_" for detailed
+descriptions of the entry points.
+.SH NOTES
+The header file \fB<form.h>\fR automatically includes the header file
+\fB<curses.h>\fR.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on
+Version 7 or BSD versions.
+.PP
+A null (zero pointer) is accepted for any of the return values,
+to ignore that value.
+Not all implementations allow this, e.g., Solaris 2.7 does not.
