We need to dress : up our otherwise boring screen presentations. : Thanks in advance. john@alphamed.com Adjust your termcap. There are four important variables in TERMCAP to use. gs = graphic start symbols ge = graphic start symbols gb = character representations of graphic symbols ZA= By default, the termcap entries for the first three are usually in upper case. Make sure they are in lower case. Experiment with which letters you want in gb (6 required) to form the window. The ZA portion you can steal from the Informix termcap and incorporate in /etc/termcap. Useful for BOLD, etc. Lastly, watch out on the WYSE with graphics. It uses a full character to send a graphic start so to open a full window you would need to OPEN it at 3,3. At 2,2 is the border, and at 1,1 is the graphics start.
