[U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output
OK. this is for UV10 Is there a keyword/option to NOT do a clear screen on the LIST command. This would be from a Paragraph, so I can't do an execute and just remove it from captured data. What we want to do is show information, then LIST file (which only has one or two items), then show more information below it. Right now, every time we do the LIST, it clears the screen and gets rid of the top information.

But, if you don't come up with a better solution, I'd hack another copy of the terminfo definition file using null for the clear_screen sequence, then set.term.type to it within the paragraph in question. Kind of kludgy, but... --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

George, If you CAPTURE the output to a variable you can modify the LIST results. I can even have a routine to move 'F'oward or 'B'ack and display your LIST results.

Most systems have a terminfo entry for dumb, so TERM dumb LIST LISTTLEFILE TERM vt100 Would get you a list with no formfeeds at page breaks -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Gallen Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 9:36 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output OK. this is for UV10 Is there a keyword/option to NOT do a clear screen on the LIST command.

RE: [U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output
this is from a paragraph, not a program, and converting it to a program is a last resort, for now our workaround was to change the order of the display, so the list runs first instead of in the middle..

RE: [U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output
If something comes up again in the future, we will most likely go this route, but for now, since this was the only time, the most simple was what we were looking for.

The same program could also be extended to export the results of the list to csv or xml (programs to do this have been mentioned on the list lately). You would be able to use it in paragraphs or procs or wherever. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

TERM 0 and TERM ,0 are not allowed on universe--it enforces minimum and maximum widths and heights. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of James Canale, Jr. Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 12:45 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output I don't know if this will / will not work for UV, but, an old PICK trick is to set the TERM depth to '0' temporarily. This works on UniData so it should work here too. As this disables pagination, it can only be used for less than a screens worth of data. TERM ,0 LIST ... TERM ,24 HTH.

SET.TERM.TYPE DUMB or SET.TERM.TYPE paper just before your LIST (maybe reset it afterwards). --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Replace the RetrieVe query with the equivalent SQL, which doesn't through a new page request (unless you explicitly ask it to). --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] squelching the ClearScreen before a LIST output
George, If you need to go down the program path, to easily convert all your paragraphs to call to a program, you could rename the UV LIST command UVLIST and create a BASIC PROGRAM LIST which wraps an execute of the UVLIST arguments command and then processes the results as you wish. Very easy. The only drawback with this is that the LIST now has to return the entire result set before the use sees anything You then just need to remember to fix these commands after an upgrade.
