** CRTLIB -- VT100 Control routines ** Files: CRTLIB.DOC ;Documentation for CRTLIB CRTLIB.OLB ;Pre assembled library CRTLIB.ULB ;Sources, command files, and documentation. DEMO.FTN ;A test program which uses CRTLIB MAKLIB.CMD ;Command file for creating CRTLIB.OLB from CRTLIB.ULB Abstract: CRTLIB was created to enhance several of our screen oriented, interactive programs. The main objective was to eliminate, or reduce the jerkey fashion which the screen was updated. To do this, instead of having each routine do QIO's to the terminal, we send the output to a central buffer, and output that buffer when it fills. This library will give the user access to most of the features of a VT100 with AVO. Several routines are included which ease the use of the VT100 function keys. Building the library: MAKLIB.CMD will build the library, a copy is also included in CRTLIB.ULB. Simply issue the command "@MAKLIB". A prefix file (VTPRE.MAC) is also included in CRTLIB.ULB. VTPRE.MAC defines some hardware features that are used by CRTLIB. A test program (DEMO.FTN) is included to test the library. Documentation: CRTLIB.RNO is also included in CRTLIB.ULB. A copy (CRTLIB.DOC) is included for reference. Note: This library has only been tested under RSX-11m V4.0. It works for us, but this library is to be used at your own risk. Author: David A.
