Remarks
You cannot specify a mark character for menu titles or menu items. The mark character is always a check mark. However, you can use SET MARK OF to display or clear the check mark for menu titles or menu items.
You cannot mark menu items created with any of the DEFINE POPUP PROMPT clauses (FIELD, FILES, or STRUCTURE).
Use MRKPAD( ) to determine if a menu title has a mark character displayed, and use MRKBAR( ) to determine if a menu item has a mark character displayed.
For an example using SET MARK OF, see CNTBAR( ).
