+.TH spacing 3MENU 2023-12-16 "ncurses 6.4" "Library calls"
+.SH NAME
+\fBset_menu_spacing\fP,
+\fBmenu_spacing\fP \-
+set and get spacing between menu items.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+\fB#include <menu.h>
+.PP
+\fBint set_menu_spacing(MENU *\fImenu\fP,
+ \fBint \fIspc_description\fB,\fR
+ \fBint \fIspc_rows\fB,\fR
+ \fBint \fIspc_columns\fB);\fR
+\fBint menu_spacing(const MENU *\fImenu\fB,\fR
+ \fBint* \fIspc_description\fB,\fR
+ \fBint* \fIspc_rows\fB,\fR
+ \fBint* \fIspc_columns\fB);\fR
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The function \fBset_menu_spacing\fP sets the spacing information for the menu.
+Its parameters provide the description and the size (in rows and columns).
+.TP
+\fIspc_description\fP
+controls the number of spaces
+between an item name and an item description.
+It must not be larger than \fBTABSIZE\fP.
+The menu system puts in the
+middle of this spacing area the pad character.
+The remaining parts are filled with
+spaces.
+.TP
+\fIspc_rows\fP
+controls the number of rows
+that are used for an item.
+It must not be larger than 3.
+The menu system inserts the blank lines between item rows, these lines
+will contain the pad character in the appropriate positions.
+.TP
+\fIspc_columns\fP
+controls the number of blanks between columns of items.
+It must not be larger than \fBTABSIZE\fP.
+A value of 0 for all the spacing values resets them to the default,
+which is 1 for all of them.
+.PP
+The function \fBmenu_spacing\fP returns the spacing information for the menu.
+If a pointer is NULL, the corresponding information is simply not returned.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Both routines return \fBE_OK\fP on success.
+\fBset_menu_spacing\fP may return
+\fBE_POSTED\fP if the menu is posted, or \fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fP if one of the
+spacing values is out of range.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These routines are specific to \fI\%ncurses\fP.
+They were not supported on
+Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.
+It is recommended that
+any code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
+.SH AUTHORS
+Juergen Pfeifer.
