+.TH win 3FORM 2023-11-25 "ncurses 6.4" "Library calls"
+.SH NAME
+\fBform_win\fP \-
+make and break form window and subwindow associations
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+\fB#include <form.h>
+.PP
+\fBint set_form_win(FORM *\fIform\fP, WINDOW *\fIwin\fP);
+\fBWINDOW *form_win(const FORM *\fIform\fP);
+.PP
+\fBint set_form_sub(FORM *\fIform\fP, WINDOW *\fIsub\fP);
+\fBWINDOW *form_sub(const FORM *\fIform\fP);
+.PP
+\fBint scale_form(const FORM *\fIform\fP, int *\fIrows\fP, int *\fIcolumns\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Every form has an associated pair of \fBcurses\fP windows.
+The form window
+displays any title and border associated with the window; the form subwindow
+displays the items of the form that are currently available for selection.
+.PP
+The first four functions get and set those windows.
+It is not necessary to set
+either window; by default, the driver code uses \fBstdscr\fP for both.
+.PP
+In the \fBset_\fP functions, window argument of \fBNULL\fP is treated as though
+it were \fBstsdcr\fP. A form argument of \fBNULL\fP is treated as a request
+to change the system default form window or subwindow.
+.PP
+The function \fBscale_form\fP returns the minimum size required for the
+subwindow of \fIform\fP.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Routines that return pointers return \fBNULL\fP on error.
+Routines that return
+an integer return one of the following error codes:
+.TP 5
+.B E_OK
+The routine succeeded.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fP(3)).
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.TP 5
+.B E_POSTED
+The form has already been posted.
+.TP 5
+.B E_NOT_CONNECTED
+No items are connected to the form.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These routines emulate the System V forms library.
+They were not supported on
+Version 7 or BSD versions.
+.SH AUTHORS
+Juergen Pfeifer.
+Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by Eric S. Raymond.
