SYNOPSIS
       #include <form.h>

       const char *form_request_name(int request);
       int form_request_by_name(const char *name);


DESCRIPTION
       The  function  form_request_name  returns  the  printable  name  of  a  form  request code.  The function
       form_request_by_name searches in the name-table for a request with the given name and returns its request
       code.  Otherwise E_NO_MATCH is returned.


RETURN VALUE
       form_request_name returns NULL on error and sets errno to E_BAD_ARGUMENT.

       form_request_by_name returns E_NO_MATCH on error.  It does not set errno.


PORTABILITY
       These  routines  are  specific  to  ncurses.   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.
