NAME
     form_win:  set_form_win, form_win,  set_form_sub,  form_sub,
     scale_form - forms window and subwindow association routines

SYNOPSIS
     #include <form.h>

     int set_form_win(FORM *form, WINDOW *win);
     WINDOW *form_win(FORM *form);

     int set_form_sub(FORM *form, WINDOW *sub);
     WINDOW *form_sub(FORM *form);
     int scale_form(FORM *form, int *rows, int *cols);

DESCRIPTION
     set_form_win sets the  window  of  form  to  win.   form_win
     returns a pointer to the window associated with form.

     set_form_sub sets the subwindow of form  to  sub.   form_sub
     returns a pointer to the subwindow associated with form.

     scale_form returns the smallest window  size  necessary  for
     the  subwindow  of  form.  rows and cols are pointers to the
     locations used to return the number of rows and columns  for
     the form.

RETURN VALUE
     Routines that return pointers always return NULL  on  error.
     Routines that return an integer return one of the following:
     E_OK            - The function returned successfully.
     E_SYSTEM_ERROR  - System error.
     E_BAD_ARGUMENT  - An argument is incorrect.
     E_NOT_CONNECTED - The field is not connected to a form.
     E_POSTED        - The form is posted.

NOTES
     The header file <form.h> automatically includes  the  header
     files <eti.h> and <curses.h>.
