lsbackup(3)  —  Unix Programmer’s Manual

NAME

lsbackup - control whether the last three pixels of a line are colored

SYNOPSIS

C
lsbackup(b)
Boolean b;

FORTRAN
subroutine lsback(b)
logical b

Pascal
procedure lsbackup(b: Boolean);

DESCRIPTION

Lsbackup is one of two commands that modify the application of the linestyle pattern.  If enabled, it overrides the current linestyle to guarantee that the final three pixels in a line will be colored.  It takes one argument, a boolean.  If b = TRUE, backup mode is enabled.  Resetls should also be set to TRUE when backup mode is enabled.  FALSE, the default setting, means the linestyle will be used as is, and lines may have invisible endpoints.
