Returns the cursor characteristics.
FORTRAN (libfgl.a)
void getcursor (Int16 *index, Colorindex *color, Colorindex *writemask, Int32 *bool)
SUBROUTINE GETCUR(index, color, writemask, bool) INTEGER*2 index, color, writemask LOGICAL bool
The getcursor subroutine finds the index of the current cursor and returns it in the index parameter. The cursor index is an index into a table of cursor bitmaps set by the defcursor subroutine.
The default is the cursor at index 0 (zero) in the cursor bitmaps. This cursor is displayed in red and is automatically updated on each vertical retrace.
Note: This subroutine cannot be used to add to a display list.
| index | Specifies an index that was previously associated with a bitmap by the defcursor subroutine. |
| color | Retained for compatibility, but disregarded. |
| writemask | Retained for compatibility, but disregarded. |
| bool | Specifies a pointer to the location into which the system returns a boolean indicating if the cursor is visible in the current window. |
This subroutine is part of GL in the AIXwindows Environment/6000 Version 1, Release 2 with AIXwindows/3D Feature.
