Syntax

CALL GASK('TEXREP', index, color-index, font, return-code-variable);

Required Arguments

index: numeric constant or numeric variable name; indicates the fill bundle to check. Valid values are 1 to 20, inclusive. If index is expressed as a variable, the variable must be initialized to a value between 1 and 20.

color-index

numeric variable name; returns the color index of the fill color associated with the bundle. The color index that is returned corresponds to a color specification in the following order:

a color index assigned with the GSET('COLREP', . . . ) function
the nth color in the color list of the COLORS= graphics option
the nth color in the device's default color list

font: character variable name; returns the text font associated with the bundle.

return-code-variable: numeric variable name; returns the return code of the routine call. The return code can be 0, 8, 68, or 69. See Return Codes for DSGI Routines and Functions.

Details

The GASK('TEXREP', . . . ) routine returns the color and font associated with a specific text bundle. If the bundle indicated by index has not been previously defined with the GSET('TEXREP', . . . ) function, DSGI issues the following error message:

 ERROR: A representation for the specified text index has
 not been defined on this workstation.
