foreground(3G) — IRIX 6.5.3f



foreground(3G)                                                  foreground(3G)



NAME
     foreground - prevents a graphical process from being put into the
     background

C SPECIFICATION
     void foreground()

PARAMETERS
     none

DESCRIPTION
     winopen normally runs a process in the background.  Call foreground
     before calling winopen.  It keeps the process in the foreground, so that
     you can interact with it from the keyboard.  When the process is in the
     foreground, it interacts in the usual way with the IRIX input/output
     routines.

SEE ALSO
     winopen

NOTES
     This routine is available only in immediate mode.

     If you want to use dbx or edge to debug graphics programs, foreground
     must be called before any calls to winopen.
