SET(VIDEO)
Sets or changes the video attributes of a window.
Syntax
SET (VIDEO, window, {NONE | BOLD | BLINK | REVERSE | UNDERLINE})
Parameters
window The window for which you are setting video attributes.
NONE To apply no attributes to the characters. This is the
default setting.
BOLD To make characters appear bold.
BLINK To make characters blink.
dREVERSE To make characters appear in reverse video.
UNDERLINE To underline characters.
Comments
Video attributes are cumulative. The window assumes the video attribute
of each keyword you set with SET (VIDEO) during an editing session. If
you do not want the cumulative effects of previous attributes, specify the
NONE keyword before specifying any new attributes.
Video attributes are applied during the next screen update. SET (VIDEO)
does not affect the status line of a window. To change the video
attributes of the status line, specify the attributes of the status line
when you create the window or by using SET (STATUS_LINE).
Example
The following statements make the current window appear in reverse video
and with underlining:
SET (VIDEO, CURRENT_WINDOW, REVERSE);
SET (VIDEO, CURRENT_WINDOW, UNDERLINE);
