NAME
       mitem_new - create and destroy menu items

SYNOPSIS
       #include <menu.h>
       ITEM *new_item(const char *name, const char *description);
       int free_item(ITEM *item);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function  new_item allocates a new item and initializes it from the name and descrip-
       tion pointers. Please notice that the item stores  only  the  pointers  to  the  name  and
       description.  Those  pointers must be valid during the lifetime of the item. So you should
       be very careful with names or descriptions allocated on the stack of some routines.
       The function free_item de-allocates an item. Please notice that it is  the  responsibility
       of the application to release the memory for the name or the description of the item.

RETURN VALUE
       The  function  new_item  returns NULL on error.  It sets errno according to the function's
       failure:

       E_BAD_ARGUMENT
            Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
            System error occurred, e.g., malloc failure.

       The function free_item returns one of the following:

       E_OK The routine succeeded.

       E_BAD_ARGUMENT
