InterSystems: The power behind what matters

Device subtypes.

Synopsis

[DeviceSubTypes]    Name=n=a^b^c^d^e^f^g^h^i^j

Each entry provides nine up-arrow (^) values that define a device subtype. From left to right:

RightMargin—The number that represents the location of the right margin. Device output wraps at that number of characters.
FormFeed—The ASCII code that represents a form feed on the selected device in the form #,$C(code1,code2...). This setting is used by the InterSystems IRIS CHUI utilities.
ScreenLength—The number of lines that comprise one screen or page for the device.
Backspace—The ASCII code that represents the backspace character on the selected device in the form $C(code1). This setting is used by the InterSystems IRIS CHUI utilities.
CursorControl—The ASCII code that represents the cursor on the selected device in the form $C(code1).
EraseEOL—The ASCII code that represents erasing the end of line characters on this device in the form $C(code1,code2).
EraseEOF—The ASCII code that represents erasing the end of file character on the selected device in the form $C(code1,code2...).
ZU22FormFeed—The ASCII code that represents a form feed on the selected device in the form $C(code1,code2). This setting is used by InterSystems IRIS for Terminal output.
ZU22Backspace—The ASCII code that represents a backspace on the selected device in the form $C(code1). This setting is used by InterSystems IRIS for Terminal output.

Examples

The following is a sample [DeviceSubTypes] section. This example wraps long lines to fit them onto the viewing page. In the .cpf file itself, each entry appears all on one line:
