STRING(3G)  —  

NAME

VI_String − draw a string

SYNOPSIS

VI_String(s)
char ∗s;/∗ string to draw ∗/

DESCRIPTION

VI_String draws the specified string at the current point.  Since a character definition is really a sequence of other graphics commands (usually VI_MImage and VI_RMove), the way in which characters are positioned, stepped, and drawn depends on the font definition.  Character definitions typically modify the current point. 

NOTE

VI_String applies only to the IBM Academic Information Systems experimental display.
