DESCRIPTION

field given. The function will return the number of rows, columns and
the maximum growth of the field in the storage pointed to by the drows,
dcols and max parameters respectively. Dynamic field information cannot
be requested for the default field. If the field given is not dynamic

field. The field_info() will return the number or rows, columns, field
starting row, field starting column, number of off screen rows and number
of buffers in rows, cols, frow, fcol, nrow and nbuf respectively.
