Files

The following are the files that hold the screen layout and prompt definition parameters. They are held in the COMMON area to reduce the size of the program and to reduce the time to open the files necessary to run the program.

 F.COL

The file F.COL is opened to this variable. This file contains the screen parameters for prompt column start positions.

 F.ROW

The file F.ROW is opened to this variable. This file contains the screen parameters for prompt row start positions.

 F.FLENGTH

The file F.FLENGTH is opened to this variable. This file contains the screen parameters for prompt field lengths.

 F.SCREENS

The file F.SCREENS is opened to this variable. This file contains the screen parameters for screen display i.e. The text to be displayed on each line of the screen and the column in which to start printing the text.

All the above variables plus MODE$ (which will be explained later) are passed to the PARADYME program via the standard PARADYME COMMON declaration.
