19 The function set_form_opts sets all the given form's option bits (form
20 option bits may be logically-OR'ed together).
21
22 The function form_opts_on turns on the given option bits, and leaves
23 others alone.
24
25 The function form_opts_off turns off the given option bits, and leaves
26 others alone.
27
28 The function form_opts returns the form's current option bits.

30 The following options are defined (all are on by default):
31
32 O_NL_OVERLOAD

34 at the end of a field goes to the next field.
35
36 O_BS_OVERLOAD
37 Overload the REQ_DEL_PREV forms driver request so that calling it
38 at the beginning of a field goes to the previous field.
