Check visibility of a menu item

Usage

#include <menu.h>

Overview

A menu item is visible when it is in the portion of a posted menu that is mapped onto the screen (if the menu is scrollable, in particular, this portion will be smaller than the whole menu).

Portability

These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
