foregr - prevents a graphical process from being put into the background
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.15. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME foregr - prevents a graphical process from being put into the background FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION subroutine foregr PARAMETERS none DESCRIPTION winope normally runs a process in the background. Call foregr before calling winope. It keeps the process in the foreground, so that you can interact with it from the keyboard. When the process is in the foreground, it interacts in the usual way with the IRIX input/output routines. SEE ALSO winope NOTES This routine is available only in immediate mode. If you want to use dbx or edge to debug graphics programs, foreground must be called before any calls to winopen.
