WAIT
UNDERLINE
specifies the underline video attribute for the screen area starting at the current
buffer address.
video-exp
specifies an integer expression surrounded by left and right square brackets that
indicates the bit-wise T6500 terminal video attributes. You can use the
[video-exp] in place of attribute keywords enclosed in parentheses. For example,
VIDEO [4+1] is equivalent to VIDEO (REVERSE DIM).
Video attribute bit values are:
[ 1] dim
[ 2] blink
[ 4] reverse
[ 8] blank
[ 16] underline
You can use the video-exp option with the #FVBODY or #FVMENUBODY
intrinsics to set video attributes at the current buffer address to match the attributes
defined by the FRAMEVIDEO statement.
Considerations
•
You can use video attributes alone or in combination with other video attributes,
such as, VIDEO (REVERSE) or VIDEO (REVERSE DIM).
•
Use VIDEO ( ) to set the video attributes of the current buffer address to normal
video.
Example
This example shows how you can use the VIDEO statement.
WAIT
The WAIT statement temporarily suspends operation of the SeeView interpreter for a
specified period while interpreting a SeeView script.
