DESCRIPTION

20       These  functions make it possible to set hook functions to be called at
21       various points in the automatic processing  of  input  event  codes  by
22       menu_driver.
23
24       The  function  set_item_init sets a hook to be called at menu-post time
25       and each time the selected item changes (after the change).   item_init
26       returns  the  current  item init hook, if any (NULL if there is no such
27       hook).
28
29       The function set_item_term sets a hook to be called at menu-unpost time
30       and each time the selected item changes (before the change).  item_term
31       returns the current item term hook, if any (NULL if there  is  no  such
32       hook).
33
34       The  function  set_menu_init sets a hook to be called at menu-post time
35       and just after the top row on the  menu  changes  once  it  is  posted.
36       menu_init  returns the current menu init hook, if any (NULL if there is
37       no such hook).
38
39       The function set_menu_term sets a hook to be called at menu-unpost time
40       and  just  before  the  top  row on the menu changes once it is posted.
41       menu_term returns the current menu term hook, if any (NULL if there  is
42       no such hook).
