NAME

pupmode - provides access to the popup menu bit planes

SPECIFICATION

C
pupmode()

FORTRAN
suboutine pupmod

Pascal
procedure pupmode;

DESCRIPTION

pupmode enables the two highest-order bit planes for writing. These bit planes are used by the window manager to display popup menus. An application process may use these planes without conflict with other processes while it retains the input focus.  Though processes may write in these planes at any time, it is recommended that they write to them only while they have the input focus.  Exceptions to this rule should be considered carefully.
