NAME
     formpost, postform, unpostform -  write  or  erase  forms
     from associated subwindows

DESCRIPTION
     postform() writes form into its associated  subwindow.  The
     application  programmer must use curses library routines  to
     display  the  form  on   the   physical   screen   or   call
     updatepanels() if the panels library is being used.


     unpostform() erases form from its associated subwindow.

     EOK                The function returned successfully.


     ESYSTEMEROR      System error.


     EBADARGUMENT      An argument is incorrect.


     EPOSTED            The form is posted.


     ENOTPOSTED        The form is not posted.


     ENOROM           The form does not fit in the subwindow.


     EBADSTATE         The    routine    was    called     from
                         an     initialization   or   termination
                         function.
