NAME

       ppd_check_option_is_marked,  ppd_mark_defaults,  ppd_mark_option  - a set of functions for
       determining the current status of PPD options and selecting them.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ppd.h>

       gboolean  ppd_check_option_is_marked  (PpdFile  *ppd,  const  char  *keyword,  const  char
       *option);

       gint ppd_mark_option(PpdFile *ppd, const char *option, const char *choice);

       void ppd_mark_defaults (PpdFile *ppd);

DESCRIPTION

       These  three  functions  are used to query the marked status of an option in a PPD file as
       well as forcing an option to be selected.

   ppd_check_option_is_marked(PpdFile *ppd, const char *option, const char *choice);
       ppd_check_option_is_marked() accepts three parameters as input. The first is  the  PpdFile
       pointer  to  a  PPD file obtained by calling one of the ppd_load(3) functions.  The second
       parameter is the option of the keyword name.  The final  input  parameter  is  the  actual
       choice name.

   ppd_mark_option(PpdFile *ppd, const char *option, const char *choice);
       ppd_mark_option  allows  the  programmer  to manually select an option in a PPD file.  The
       parameters are the a valid PpdFile pointer (see ppd_file_new(3)), the option name, and the
       choice name.

   void ppd_mark_defaults (PpdFile *ppd);
       ppd_mark_defaults()  resets  all  the  default  options  in  the PPD file specified by the
       PpdFile pointer (see ppd_file_new(3)).

RETURN VALUE

       ppd_check_option_is_marked()
              FALSE if the option is not currently selected and TRUE is it marked

       ppd_mark_option()
              Always returns 0.  The only means  of  determining  whether  or  not  the  function
              succeeded  is to make a subsequent call to ppd_check_option_is_marked() on the same
              option.
