Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

 :cgraphic.
 
The :cgraphic tag starts an area that contains character graphics. A
character-graphics area is any table, chart, or other art that uses graphics
characters. Graphics characters are characters that represent lines, boxes,
typographic characters, and other symbols. In a help panel, these characters
can be combined to create art, but must be placed in a character-graphics
area. The character-graphics area starts with the  :cgraphic tag and must
end with the :ecgraphic tag. When displayed, the area is immediately
preceded by and followed by a blank line.
 
This tag does not use parameters.
 
Example
 
This example uses the :cgraphic tag to create a graphics area:
 
    :cgraphic.
    .* Place graphics characters here.
    :ecgraphic.
