prtset - set up a printer to use with grace(C-1)

SYNOPSIS


	prtset

DESCRIPTION


prtset(C-1) provides a convenient method for setting up printers.  
These printers will be used  by grace(C-1).  

Enter Break Character

This field specifies the character that will be used to signal the end 
of an escape sequence.  When the break character is entered the escape 
sequence will be saved and a prompt will ask if another escape sequence 
is to be enetered.

Use Decimal Notation?

This field specifies the method in which the escape sequence will be 
entered.  Entering a 'Y' or pressing  will allow for the entering 
of escape sequences by the decimal (ASCII) value of each individual 
character in the sequence.  Entering a 'N' will allow the input of the 
actual escape sequence.  This method allow for the , ,, 
and other mixed key combinations.

Enter Printer Name

In this field the name of the printer is entered.  This name will be 
displayed in the Printer Name field of the Output Destination screen in 
grace(C-1).  A string of no more than 16 characters may be entered.  
The printer name is the primary key within the cbase~prsetup datafile.

Enter Printer Id

This field accepts an integer value that will be used to identify the 
printer.  This is the secondary key in the cbase~prsetup datafile.  
This id number will be displayed in the Printer Id field of the Output 
Destination screen in grace(C-1). A numeric value of no more than 5 
digits may be entered.

Enter Port Name

This field specifies the printer port or spooler.  This string tells 
wtr(C-1) where to send the report output. This field has a maximum 
string length of 80 characters.

Enter Description n of 5

The description is the name of the escape sequence that will be associated 
with the escape sequence entered in the next field.  This description 
will be displayed in the Sequence Description box in the Output Destination 
screen in grace(C-1).  The maximum string length for a description is 
40 characters. Example: "Compressed landscape TMS RM"

Enter escape sequence for description

This where the actual escape sequence is entered.  In Decimal Notation 
mode an escape sequence is entered by entering the decimal (ASCII) value 
of one character followed by a carriage return.  In Letter Notation mode 
the exact escape sequence can be entered  using the , ,  
or any other charcters.  To save an escape sequence enter the break 
character.

NOTE:  This program does not allow the editing of escape sequences.  If 
a mistake is made then the whole process must be repeated.  This applies 
to both input methods.

Up to five (5) descriptions and escape sequences may be entered for one 
printer.  After each escape sequence has been entered and saved a message 
will appear asking if another escape sequence is going to be entered.  
If Yes, then the program will prompt for a new description name and then 
another escape sequence.  A running count of the number of sequences 
entered is displayed on the same line as the description prompt.
