Change Screen fonts using Informix 4GL

Can I change what font appears on the screen. I know about changing color using display XXX attribute(red). Can I use somthing similar to decide what fonts I want to display on screen. I know we can do that in a report writer. Is it also possible on perform screens or using display statements? Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Yes, but you have to know exactly what you're up to because I4GL doesn't and will get confused, in general. Emit the control sequences needed to the terminal -- DISPLAY will work for that. But I4GL still expects the font to be the same size and double-height fonts in particular will probably throw things out horribly. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v1.00.PC1 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
