hiSetEncapHistory

hiSetEncapHistory(
w_window 
t_msg
[ g_redraw ] 
) 
=> t / nil

Description

Copies a message into the next available insertion position in an encapsulation output window.

Arguments

w_window

Encapsulation window ID returned from hiEncap.

t_msg

String that you want appended (inserted) to the last line of the output portion of the encapsulation window.

g_redraw

Determines whether a message sent to the encapsulation output window is displayed or saved. If set to nil, messages sent to the encapsulation window are buffered (saved) and are not displayed until a newline character is explicitly specified in t_msg. For performance reasons, this flag should be set when sending long strings to the window. If set to t (the default), all messages sent to the encapsulation window are immediately displayed with a newline automatically appended.

If the property noAutoNewline on the encapsulation window is set to t, the newline is not automatically appended to the t_msg string, and a ’\n’ character must be explicitly specified in the string before the string is sent and displayed to the window output.

Values Returned

t

The string is copied to the encapsulation output window.

nil

The string is not copied to the encapsulation output window. A warning is also issued.
