11.5. $SCREEN
Note: The driver routine $SCREEN is in the standard HOBCOM under VM/CMS not linked.
The contents of a virtual terminal of the real terminal, on which one is just working on can be read with
help of the driver routine $SCREEN.
1. part filename (fix): $SCREEN
The second Part-filename determines the number of the virtual terminal, from which will be read:
Pn
instead of n enter the number of the virtual terminal (1, 2, 3 or 4)
xxxxxx
the third part filename is not being evaluated at the moment
This driver routine is used by HOBTEXT to read the contents of a second virtual terminal.
Example invoke:
DATEN EXTERN $SCREEN.P3.xxxxxx
In this case the data is read which is shown on the third virtual screen (P3).
