Initialization Commands
Text Redraw Delay
Initialization File: TextRedrawDelay=milliseconds
Command Line: -rdmilliseconds
Default Setting: 1000
These commands enable you to specify the delay period before text is redrawn after
terminal inactivity. The numeric value specifies the time in milliseconds. The
minimum delay period is 250 milliseconds.
Support Multiple Surfaces
Initialization File: planeMasking=on
Command Line: -pmindex (index is optional)
Default Setting: Disabled
These commands affect the Tek terminal emulation. If you are using an application
that uses multiple surfaces then you can use these commands to enable TeemTalk to
support them. Note that your PC must have a display adaptor that supports 256
colour mode and your system must be running in this mode in order for multiple
surfaces to be supported.
The command line option can also be used to specify an alternative colour index for
the crosshair cursor by entering the decimal value immediately after -pm.
Alpha Off During Redraw
Initialization File: hideAlpha=on
Command Line: -h
Default Setting: Alpha is on during redraw
These commands enable you to prevent display flicker which is noticeable with some
applications when a segment redraw is being performed. (The commands do not
apply to TeemTalk-05W or TeemTalk-05W32.)
Crosshair Cursor Size
Initialization File: CrosshairSize=size
Command Line: -xsize
Default Setting: 4096
These commands enable you to specify the size of the graphics cursor, where size is
a numeric value in the range 1 to 4096, i.e. world coordinates.
