        !            25: Standout and Appearance Modes
        !            26: =============================
        !            27: 
        !            28:    "Appearance modes" are modifications to the ways characters are
        !            29: displayed.  Typical appearance modes include reverse video, dim, bright,
        !            30: blinking, underlined, invisible, and alternate character set.  Each
        !            31: kind of terminal supports various among these, or perhaps none.
        !            32: 
        !            33:    For each type of terminal, one appearance mode or combination of
        !            34: them that looks good for highlighted text is chosen as the "standout
        !            35: mode".  The capabilities `so' and `se' say how to enter and leave
        !            36: standout mode.  Programs that use appearance modes only to highlight
        !            37: some text generally use the standout mode so that they can work on as
        !            38: many terminals as possible.  Use of specific appearance modes other
        !            39: than "underlined" and "alternate character set" is rare.
        !            40: 
        !            41:    Terminals that implement appearance modes fall into two general
        !            42: classes as to how they do it.
        !            43: 
        !            44:    In some terminals, the presence or absence of any appearance mode is
        !            45: recorded separately for each character position.  In these terminals,
        !            46: each graphic character written is given the appearance modes current at
        !            47: the time it is written, and keeps those modes until it is erased or
        !            48: overwritten. There are special commands to turn the appearance modes on
        !            49: or off for characters to be written in the future.
        !            50: 
        !            51:    In other terminals, the change of appearance modes is represented by
        !            52: a marker that belongs to a certain screen position but affects all
        !            53: following screen positions until the next marker.  These markers are
        !            54: traditionally called "magic cookies".
        !            55: 
        !            56:    The same capabilities (`so', `se', `mb' and so on) for turning
        !            57: appearance modes on and off are used for both magic-cookie terminals
        !            58: and per-character terminals.  On magic cookie terminals, these give the
        !            59: commands to write the magic cookies.  On per-character terminals, they
        !            60: change the current modes that affect future output and erasure.  Some
        !            61: simple applications can use these commands without knowing whether or
        !            62: not they work by means of cookies.
        !            63: 
        !            64:    However, a program that maintains and updates a display needs to know
        !            65: whether the terminal uses magic cookies, and exactly what their effect
        !            66: is. This information comes from the `sg' capability.
        !            67: 
        !            68:    The `sg' capability is a numeric capability whose presence indicates
        !            69: that the terminal uses magic cookies for appearance modes.  Its value is
        !            70: the number of character positions that a magic cookie occupies.  Usually
        !            71: the cookie occupies one or more character positions on the screen, and
        !            72: these character positions are displayed as blank, but in some terminals
        !            73: the cookie has zero width.
        !            74: 
        !            75:    The `sg' capability describes both the magic cookie to turn standout
        !            76: on and the cookie to turn it off.  This makes the assumption that both
        !            77: kinds of cookie have the same width on the screen.  If that is not true,
        !            78: the narrower cookie must be "widened" with spaces until it has the same
        !            79: width as the other.
        !            80: 
        !            81:    On some magic cookie terminals, each line always starts with normal
        !            82: display; in other words, the scope of a magic cookie never extends over
        !            83: more than one line.  But on other terminals, one magic cookie affects
        !            84: all the lines below it unless explicitly canceled.  Termcap does not
        !            85: define any way to distinguish these two ways magic cookies can work. 
        !            86: To be safe, it is best to put a cookie at the beginning of each line.
        !            87: 
        !            88:    On some per-character terminals, standout mode or other appearance
        !            89: modes may be canceled by moving the cursor.  On others, moving the
        !            90: cursor has no effect on the state of the appearance modes.  The latter
        !            91: class of terminals are given the flag capability `ms' ("can move in
        !            92: standout").  All programs that might have occasion to move the cursor
        !            93: while appearance modes are turned on must check for this flag; if it is
        !            94: not present, they should reset appearance modes to normal before doing
        !            95: cursor motion.
        !            96: 
        !            97:    A program that has turned on only standout mode should use `se' to
        !            98: reset the standout mode to normal.  A program that has turned on only
        !            99: alternate character set mode should use `ae' to return it to normal. If
        !           100: it is possible that any other appearance modes are turned on, use the
        !           101: `me' capability to return them to normal.
        !           102: 
        !           103:    Note that the commands to turn on one appearance mode, including `so'
        !           104: and `mb' ... `mr', if used while some other appearance modes are turned
        !           105: on, may combine the two modes on some terminals but may turn off the
        !           106: mode previously enabled on other terminals.  This is because some
        !           107: terminals do not have a command to set or clear one appearance mode
        !           108: without changing the others.  Programs should not attempt to use
        !           109: appearance modes in combination except with `sa', and when switching
        !           110: from one single mode to another should always turn off the previously
        !           111: enabled mode and then turn on the new desired mode.
        !           112: 
        !           113:    On some old terminals, the `so' and `se' commands may be the same
        !           114: command, which has the effect of turning standout on if it is off, or
        !           115: off it is on.  It is therefore risky for a program to output extra `se'
        !           116: commands for good measure.  Fortunately, all these terminals are
        !           117: obsolete.
        !           118: 
        !           119:    Programs that update displays in which standout-text may be replaced
        !           120: with non-standout text must check for the `xs' flag.  In a per-character
        !           121: terminal, this flag says that the only way to remove standout once
        !           122: written is to clear that portion of the line with the `ce' string or
        !           123: something even more powerful (*note Clearing::.); just writing new
        !           124: characters at those screen positions will not change the modes in
        !           125: effect there.  In a magic cookie terminal, `xs' says that the only way
        !           126: to remove a cookie is to clear a portion of the line that includes the
        !           127: cookie; writing a different cookie at the same position does not work.
        !           128: 
        !           129:    Such programs must also check for the `xt' flag, which means that the
        !           130: terminal is a Teleray 1061.  On this terminal it is impossible to
        !           131: position the cursor at the front of a magic cookie, so the only two
        !           132: ways to remove a cookie are (1) to delete the line it is on or (2) to
        !           133: position the cursor at least one character before it (possibly on a
        !           134: previous line) and output the `se' string, which on these terminals
        !           135: finds and removes the next `so' magic cookie on the screen.  (It may
        !           136: also be possible to remove a cookie which is not at the beginning of a
        !           137: line by clearing that line.)  The `xt' capability also has implications
        !           138: for the use of tab characters, but in that regard it is obsolete (*Note
        !           139: Cursor Motion::).
        !           140: 
        !           141: `so'
        !           142:      String of commands to enter standout mode.
        !           143: 
        !           144: `se'
        !           145:      String of commands to leave standout mode.
        !           146: 
        !           147: `sg'
        !           148:      Numeric capability, the width on the screen of the magic cookie. 
        !           149:      This capability is absent in terminals that record appearance modes
        !           150:      character by character.
        !           151: 
        !           152: `ms'
        !           153:      Flag whose presence means that it is safe to move the cursor while
        !           154:      the appearance modes are not in the normal state.  If this flag is
        !           155:      absent, programs should always reset the appearance modes to
        !           156:      normal before moving the cursor.
        !           157: 
        !           158: `xs'
        !           159:      Flag whose presence means that the only way to reset appearance
        !           160:      modes already on the screen is to clear to end of line.  On a
        !           161:      per-character terminal, you must clear the area where the modes
        !           162:      are set.  On a magic cookie terminal, you must clear an area
        !           163:      containing the cookie. See the discussion above.
        !           164: 
        !           165: `xt'
        !           166:      Flag whose presence means that the cursor cannot be positioned
        !           167:      right in front of a magic cookie, and that `se' is a command to
        !           168:      delete the next magic cookie following the cursor.  See discussion
        !           169:      above.
        !           170: 
        !           171: `mb'
        !           172:      String of commands to enter blinking mode.
        !           173: 
        !           174: `md'
        !           175:      String of commands to enter double-bright mode.
        !           176: 
        !           177: `mh'
        !           178:      String of commands to enter half-bright mode.
        !           179: 
        !           180: `mk'
        !           181:      String of commands to enter invisible mode.
        !           182: 
        !           183: `mp'
        !           184:      String of commands to enter protected mode.
        !           185: 
        !           186: `mr'
        !           187:      String of commands to enter reverse-video mode.
        !           188: 
        !           189: `me'
        !           190:      String of commands to turn off all appearance modes, including
        !           191:      standout mode and underline mode.  On some terminals it also turns
        !           192:      off alternate character set mode; on others, it may not.  This
        !           193:      capability must be present if any of `mb' ... `mr' is present.
        !           194: 
        !           195: `as'
        !           196:      String of commands to turn on alternate character set mode.  This
        !           197:      mode assigns some or all graphic characters an alternate picture
        !           198:      on the screen.  There is no standard as to what the alternate
        !           199:      pictures look like.
        !           200: 
        !           201: `ae'
        !           202:      String of commands to turn off alternate character set mode.
        !           203: 
        !           204: `sa'
        !           205:      String of commands to turn on an arbitrary combination of
        !           206:      appearance modes.  It accepts 9 parameters, each of which controls
        !           207:      a particular kind of appearance mode.  A parameter should be 1 to
        !           208:      turn its appearance mode on, or zero to turn that mode off.  Most
        !           209:      terminals do not support the `sa' capability, even among those
        !           210:      that do have various appearance modes.
        !           211: 
        !           212:      The nine parameters are, in order, STANDOUT, UNDERLINE, REVERSE,
        !           213:      BLINK, HALF-BRIGHT, DOUBLE-BRIGHT, BLANK, PROTECT, ALT CHAR SET.

        !           218: Underlining
        !           219: ===========
        !           220: 
        !           221:    Underlining on most terminals is a kind of appearance mode, much like
        !           222: standout mode.  Therefore, it may be implemented using magic cookies or
        !           223: as a flag in the terminal whose current state affects each character
        !           224: that is output.  *Note Standout::, for a full explanation.
        !           225:

        !           329: Such programs should also send the `ke' string when exiting.
