show_panel() makes panel, previously hidden, visible and places it on top of the deck of panels.

hide_panel() removes panel from the panel deck and, thus, hides it from view. The internal data structure of the panel is retained.

panel_hidden() returns TRUE (1) or FALSE (0) indicating whether or not panel is in the deck of panels.

show_panel() and hide_panel() return the integer OK upon successful completion or ERR upon error.

The header <panel.h> automatically includes the header <curses.h>.
