VAXTPU MAP — VMS 5.2

 MAP

    Associates a buffer with a window and makes the window visible on the
    screen.  Before using MAP you must already have created the buffer and
    the window.  (See help on CREATE_BUFFER and CREATE_WINDOW.)

 Syntax

    MAP (window, buffer)

 Parameters

    window     A window that you want to map to the screen.

    buffer     A buffer you want to associate with the window.

 Examples

    1.  MAP (main_window, main_buffer);

        Associates the main buffer with the main window, and maps the main
        window to the screen.

    2.  The following procedure creates a message buffer and a message
        window; it then associates the message buffer with the message
        window and maps the message window to the screen:

        PROCEDURE user_message_window
           !   Create a message buffer and a message window
           message_buffer := CREATE_BUFFER ("message");
           message_window := CREATE_WINDOW (23, 2, OFF);
           !   Set the attributes of the buffer and window
           SET (EOB_TEXT, message_buffer, "");
           SET (NO_WRITE, message_buffer);
           SET (SYSTEM, message_buffer);
           SET (VIDEO, message_window, NONE);
           MAP (message_window, message_buffer);
        ENDPROCEDURE;
