     specified field pointer array (which must be NULL-
     terminated).

     The function free_form disconnects form from its field array
     and frees the storage allocated for the form.

NOTES
     The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header
     file <curses.h>.

PORTABILITY

     were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
