       The function menu_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.

       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.
