UPDATE
Causes the screen manager to make a window reflect the current state of
the buffer that is mapped to the window. The screen manager updates
windows after each keystroke. This means that if a key is bound to a
procedure, several built-ins may be executed before the screen actually
reflects the internal state of the buffer. If you want the screen to
reflect changes before the entire procedure is executed, you can force
an immediate update by adding an UPDATE statement to the procedure.
Syntax
UPDATE ({window | ALL})
Parameters
window The window that you want updated. The window must
be visible for the update to occur.
ALL Specifies that all visible windows are to be
updated to reflect the current state of the
buffers mapped to them.
Example
UPDATE (new_window);
This statement causes the screen manager to make the new window reflect
the current internal state of the buffer associated with that window.
