The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
For over a decade, we've had a splash screen on our QuestView product,
which was originally put in as the easiest way to determine, one way or
another, whether the terminal was 132-column-capable (since InfoWindow
II terminals can have that capability disabled, without affecting the
model-ID code that shows up in [if memory serves] the Open Feedback).
Now, we want to put some meaningful information in the splash screen,
but to do that, we'd like it to sit there for a specific number of
seconds, but also give the user an option to (1) dismiss it, by pressing
<enter>, or (2) hold it indefinitely, until dismissed, by pressing
something else. It sounds possible, presumably using "invite," but I'm
not sure of the mechanics, especially in MI.
As it is, I *think* it already comes up in an "invited" state, as the
keyboard is unlocked (albeit ignored).
When I get a chance, I'll post code snippets from the MI and DSPF source
members. Probably shortened, but relatively uncensored.
