GPR_$INQ_BLANK_TIMEOUT            GPR Calls             GPR_$INQ_BLANK_TIMEOUT


NAME
     gpr_$inq_blank_timeout - returns the time period before screen is shut
     off.

FORMAT
     gpr_$inq_blank_timeout (timeout, status)

DESCRIPTION
     This routine returns the time period that the system waits before it
     shuts off the screen.  The time period is measured from the last input
     event.  This routine is similar to the shell command scrto [n].  returns
     the time period before screen is shut off.  The time period is returned
     in the timeout parameter.  The data type for this parameter is
     time_$clock_t, which is listed in /sys/ins/base.ins.pas and
     /usr/apollo/include/gpr.h.  This data type is described in detail in Pro-
     gramming with General System Calls.

   Output Parameters
     timeout
          Amount of time the system will wait before the screen is blanked
          out.  Type is in time_$clock_t format.  In FORTRAN, declare a two-
          element array of int*4.  Also declare a two-element dummy array of
          int*2.  EQUIVALENCE the dummy array with the second element of the
          int*4 array.  Use the first element of the int*4 array for
          timeout.low32.  Use the first element of the dummy array for
          timeout.high16.

     status
          Completion status, in status_$t format.
