DESCRIPTION
       set_field_type() associates the specified field type with field.	  Cer‐
       tain  field  types take additional arguments. TYPE_ALNUM, for instance,

       TYPE_NUMERIC, and TYPE_REGEXP.

       field_type() returns a pointer to the field type	 of  field.   NULL  is
       returned if no field type is assigned.

       field_arg()  returns  a	pointer to the field arguments associated with
       the field type of field. NULL is returned if no field type is assigned.

RETURN VALUES
       field_type() and field_arg() return NULL on error.

       set_field_type() returns one of the following:

       E_OK
