NAME [Toc] [Back]
DtCreateTerm - create a DtTerm widget
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Dt/Term.h>
Widget DtCreateTerm(
Widget parent,
String name,
ArgList arglist,
Cardinal argcount);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The DtCreateTerm function creates a terminal emulator widget
hierarchy.
The parent argument specifies the parent widget ID.
The name argument specifies the name of the created widget.
The arglist argument specifies the argument list.
The argcount argument specifies the number of attribute and value
pairs in the argument list (arglist).
The DtTerm widget provides the core set of functionality needed to
emulate an ANSI X3.64-1979- and ISO 6429:1992(E)-style terminal, such
as the DEC VT220. This functionality includes text rendering,
scrolling, margin and tab support, escape sequence parsing and the
low-level OS-specific interface required to allocate and configure a
pty or STREAMS pseudo-terminal device and write the system's utmp
device.
RETURN VALUE [Toc] [Back]
Upon successful completion, the DtCreateTerm function returns the
DtTerm widget ID.
