SET(SCREEN_UPDATE)
Enables or disables screen updating -- sending characters and cursor
movements to the screen, so the screen reflects the current internal state
of any buffer displayed on the screen. By default, screen updating is
enabled.
Syntax
SET (SCREEN_UPDATE {OFF | ON})
Parameters
OFF Disables screen updates until turned on.
ON Enables screen updates, so characters and cursor movement are
sent to the screen. This causes VAXTPU to update the screen
immediately.
Example
The following statements turn screen updating off and on; depending on
what actions occurred while updating is off, the screen may be cleared and
repainted when you turn updating back on:
SET (SCREEN_UPDATE, OFF); ! Turn off updates
.
.
SET (SCREEN_UPDATE, ON); ! Turn updates back on
