RE: [U2] UV Timed INPUT
David, Not sure what you need to accomplish, Brian's offer looks promising. You might also try INPUTIF. I use it in status screens. got the idea from my days working with computer aided dispatch. ACT='' LOOP INPUTIF YOUR.WISH THEN BEGIN CASE CASE UPCASE(YOUR.WISH) MATCHES XQUIT ; ACT = EOJ CASE YOUR.WISH GE 1 AND LE OPTION.CNT ; Go do the option nbr CASE 1 ; Error handler here END CASE END ELSE SLEEP REFRESH.SEC.CNT.FROM.INSTALLATION.PARAMS GOSUB REFRESH.AMBULANCE.STATUS.SCRN END UNTIL ACT = 'EOJ' REPEAT We have someone who watches a status screen for Credit Card Auths that are on some status that requires human interaction.

RE: [U2] UV Timed INPUT
David, UniData has a FOR or WAITING clause on the INPUT statement which lets you do exactly this. I'm not sure what the UniVerse equivalent would be. Certainly you wouldn't normally want to be in a tight loop looking for input with INPUT,-1 or INPUTIF, or blocked by a SLEEP when input was available already. Perhaps a NAP inside an INPUT,-1 LOOP?

Hi, the simple answer is no..but there is a way...on UNIX. You can open the device using OPENSEQ and read the input using READBLK, this allows you to use the TIMEOUT command.

Re: [U2] UV Timed INPUT
Thanks to all for the responses; yes the UniData INPUT ... WAITING looks like it would be great but it doesn't exist on UniVerse. I'm still battling with the basic problem of trying to intercept a partially entered string after a certain time. If typing has started but Enter hasn't been pressed to finalise an INPUT command, then everything waits until the INPUT is satisfied. I need to jump in after (say) 5 seconds of waiting for ENTER and abandon the INPUT. INPUTIF is part of the solution, but it also waits for an ENTER which may never arrive.

RE: [U2] UV Timed INPUT
Here's my hastily hacked together solution, it allows 5 seconds for the user to enter a string. It grabs a single character at a time and builds up a string - you need to cater for special characters manually, I've coded for enter and backspace, you could just discard any others that are below CHAR(32) or above CHAR(126). It doesn't display anything on screen - you could add CRT statements as the string is built up. CT = 0 LOOP LOOP INPUT CHAR.WAITING,-1 WHILE CHAR.WAITING CHARACTER = KEYIN() BEGIN CASE CASE CHARACTER = CHAR(10) ;* Enter CT = 100 EXIT CASE CHARACTER = CHAR(8) ;* Backspace IF LEN(THE.STRING) THEN THE.STRING = THE.STRING[1,LEN(THE.STRING)-1] CASE @TRUE THE.STRING := CHARACTER END CASE REPEAT NAP 50 WHILE CT 100 CT += 1 REPEAT -Original Message- From: owner-u2-us...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:owner-u2-us...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Norman, David (Health) Sent: Friday, 13 March 2009 9:38 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] UV Timed INPUT Thanks to all for the responses; yes the UniData INPUT ...
